I have a pair of antique andirons that I am restoring. They have some of their original paint still on it. Is this safe for high temps?

You will be thoroughly wiping it off and polishing it anyway and could even wash after with a mild soap if you are worried about residue left behind so I would say it should be just fine to use.

As far as I know it would be safe, but I would wash the polish residue off after polishing the andirons. If they are painted why are you polishing them?

I use a rustolium paint that is high heat to 2000 degrees. I did two coats and has held up for 4 months so far. You can buy the paint at walmart for 7 or 8 dollars. Hope this helps

The warranty is VOID if you use them at Temps above 500 F (ruins the enamel) but 375F should be no problem!

I would not leave it exposed to weather. It will eventually show corrosion.

I have no experience with that paint and can't say yes or no. My general feeling is paints have some volatile matter which might give out fumes and would might affect the food & health. Just take metal brush run with it around and apply oil. It should be ok. I got a cover as well for this grill, but didn't do much benefit. I could see rust all over the place. So I turned back to old method (brush and oil). Planning to keep it in the basement or in garage when not in use.

Check with the manufacturer, but personally I wouldn't leave anything out in such heat.

This set is powder-coated steel, not aluminum, so if the paint was scraped then that spot would rust. We suggested using a cover for maximum protection against the elements to avoid any issues.

Temp reaches 50 which I believe is 500 degrees. It gets hot enough. Bad thing is paint finish will scrape off easily at high temps. Be warned.

I believe it would be ok because once you bake the paint (around 300 degrees), as I did with the wine glasses I painted --it is resisted to any wear from a dishwasher which is water and heat...

warm the boots up...in sunny spot maybe? and re buff them. Too much wax makes em sticky. Heat and buff thins the coating.

If you use them outside I would spray them with a clear sealent otherwise after a while I think they would probably rust.

I like mine. It is still being used. It was covered in snow over winter and has some rust but I am going to use your idea and go to home depot and get fire-resistant paint.

You're totally good. Follow the re seasoning instructions everyone is mentioning. These things wouldn't last 100 if they couldn't fight a little rust.

I have had no problem using them on high heat. This is a fine set of cookware.

I painted 2 metal bird that I had outside & then sealed them with a spray epoxy once the painted cured a couple of days. I had no problems.

I have only used it on clothes suitcases and shoes; shoe-leather and suitcase-leather survived 2 hrs at 145 degrees internal-temp with no damage

Warm And Dry Is What You Are Always Looking For When Painting Anything. I Wouldn't Do It Unless It's A Heated Garage
