Metal finishing Q&As since 1989

Touch up paint for oven

I have a DCS oven I bought about 10 years ago (prior to being bought up by Fischer Packell) with chipped paint on door. DCS/Fischer Packell no help. It is a dark silver (pewter?) metallic flake. Would auto body paint stand up to the heat? I am selling the house, so I can't afford to spend a lot of money, but I don't want to misrepresent the condition of the oven to prospective buyers.

Paint is probably aluminum powder based and that paint can stand up to 400 °C temperature.Hope it helps and good luck!

I believe you may find high temperature paints for home use at hardware stores. Not sure about the range of colors.
