They sell high heat paint for BBQ's and epoxy paint for appliances. Go to Lowes and find these products. Read the labels and find the manufactures phone number and ask them if it is ok to paint a microwave. Good luck!

Waveguide Cover

If the microwave is sparking or arcing the waveguide cover might be damaged and shorting out. Try removing the waveguide cover and see if the problem goes away. If there are any damaged spots in the microwave ceiling or sidewalls, repair them and paint them with microwave oven paint. Replace the waveguide cover if it is burnt or if it will not stay in place.

Microwave Oven Paint

If the microwave is sparking or arcing on the side walls the paint might have chipped causing pitting in the metal oven wall. Use microwave safe paint to touch up any bare metal spots.





Rack Support

If the microwave is sparking or arcing near one of the rack supports, remove the support, repaint any bare metal, install a new support.

The bottom of my microwave has gone rusty. Is it

You need to clean it, sand it shiny, then clean it squeaky again.

Then you can get high temperature appliance paint in spray or brush-on form from local appliance part stores or places like Wal-Mart and Lowe's.

I would suggest you let it dry overnight with the door open before using the oven.

Turnable plate isn't working

in order to be 100 % sure
you would have to check voltage to the motor while its suppposed to operate
take off the bottom 6 screws, you might need whats called a safe t, a torque wrench or star with a hole
most use phillips,
drop the bottom, you should see the turn table motor
disconnect the two leads and connect them to a voltmeter,,,
turn the unit on
you should read voltage to the meter
if not the problem is in your control board and will need to be replace
if you do read voltage and the motor is not turning
you will need to replace the actual motor
either way its a pretty simple repair and can be done without taking the unit dwon

Bottom is rusty in the roller groove

If the cavity metal of the oven is chipped or charred, it will have to be sanded smooth and clean and dried thoroughly first.

Then you can apply some high-temperature appliance paint.

COATING ON INSIDE OF MICROWAVE HAS STARTED TO COME OFF, EXPOSING UNDERNEATH SURFACE, IS IT STILL SAFE TO USE AND EAT FOOD COOKED IN IT?

Nothing special in there. As long as the paint is not flaking into the food you are ok, Be aware that bare metal could begin to arc. There is special microwave paint available but it will not match and look bad unless you redo the entire interior.

LG microwave oven

As long as the waveguide itself isn't damaged, you should be able to replace the shield without issue... That shield only prevents food from splashing onto the waveguide itself and is not part of the microwave RF protection... Check your local hardware store for touch up paint.. shouldn't matter what brand as long as it contains rust inhibitors.. Good luck...

Paint has chipped off bottom of MW

Surely you should have a 12 month warranty with it, take it back to the shop and tell them it's going rusty, and that it's not fit for purpose. Read your consumer right's which are usually available on the internet, then quote it to them if they argue about it. They should either repair or replace the machine.
