I used baking soda with vinegar and water and created a paste, then I put a slab and generous amount of it on the rusty part and let it sit for 10 min. After that I took a harsh scrubber 🧽 and scrubbed it off. Worked great and then got microwave cavity paint (spray bottle) and it’s good as new
Thank you so much for your video. My microwave is very rusty but I felt guilty throwing it away and polluting the environment, when it is working perfectly. I was searching to buy a new one, but after watching your video I definitely am going to try to fix mine too.
I was so surprised that this happened to my microwave, but relieved when i found your video and saw all the comments as well. I always wiped out the visible interior after use, BUT i kept a paper plate over the glass plate to catch any spills and never really looked underneath until i heard grinding and then i was horrified at the rust and stains. Also can confirm that is rust and not dirt at the bzck edge. I never had the rotating kind before this one and didn't realize this could be a problem! Thanks for your video, well done.
To stop rust leave your microwave open after use, this will allow it to dry out inside, also don't damage the paint or just buy a microwave that's stainless steel inside.
You're a very patient chap! LoL. I'm about to jump in with both feet and repair my nuke-cooker-box. You gave inspiration to get it done! So, thank you from Pittsburgh Pennsylvania.
2nd microwave to have hole in it and spark leaving awful smell. Had no idea of what was happening until this research. I clean the microwave as I do the dishes but sadly,I never thought about removing the part with the wheels and cleaning it. I've cleaned every other area and could not figure out WTH was happening. Our microwave is about 2 years old and she's a beaut. Was a gift from my son. When I saw that spark coming through a hole on the floor of microwave, I immediately unplugged it. I'll be purchasing that kit and unfortunately another less expensive microwave. Wish I had checked and researched before now. I assumed when it happened the first time; the microwave was just old. Wrong. I wasn't cleaning the wheels:( Damn. Damn. Damn.
i have just ordered the fix kit for the interior of my microwave. This is a fault that most microwaves have. The condensation does not evaporate and it al pools in areas such as under the plate , on the ledge of the door and in the edges where the metal meets at the back. I know dry out my micro all the time and leave the door open. I noticed that they have 'cavity microwave paint', in spray form, available in the USA, but not in the UK - but can get it sent over via ebay . I think the spray would be better to blend in without brush strokes being seen, but could be costly to have it posted from USA. You did a great job here. Thanks for sharing your video, I am sure a lot of people appreciate the tutorial before they start on their microwave.
The paint that I used wasn't that good, after a few months it started melting and bubbling up. I've seen cavity spray paint too which is in America, maybe that would be better. Anyway, I've got a new microwave now, I always dry after cooking something and I'll leave the door open. I really don't know how the water makes the metal rust under the paint as surely the water cannot pass through the paint. So I've got no idea how it happens.
@@RPKGameVids It does - just like in cars. mostly at weak points. Under the plate the little wheels that make the plate go round creates friction, which will eventually erode the paint. same as any joins in the interior at the back especially. I have ordered the kit anyway, but if this continues, I too will just get a new one. I think it is a design fault as it appears to happen to most microwaves. I am surprised that they cannot create a seamless interior, with technology today, and a plate that rotates without the plastic bit under it. This never happens with a traditional oven, because it is dry heat and not steam/condensation . I dry the interior out after every use and leave the door open just like yourself. It is the only way to prevent any build up of moisture.
We'll done. I'm going to try this repair. Lesson learned from comments: wipe out the microwave after high-moisture cooking. I'm thrifty, like you--get the most out of what you have instead of contributing more to the world's trash piles. Thank you so much. I cook EVERYTHING with my microwave. It uses far less electricity than the electric oven/stove.
Dear person you are the cutest funniest most pleasant enjoyable human i have ever encountered online! This is my first comment in all these years. I could tell you my sad story hoping to show you somehow just how much this encounter has affected me. Thankyou thankyou - i was laughing so much and repeating things you said... you are the closest creation to a split-apart for me i have every experienced. You kept saying out loud the things i say in my head. While i was laughing i kept sputtering out "you dont have to say that". I believe its the WAY you said things, so calm and matter-if-fact like. Just hilarious... you brought actual Joy into my situation and you all dont need to believe it but i havent REALLY laughed in years and you are so awesome i cant find words that express what i wish you to know. Thankyou Bless You I will keep this near my hand for whenever i might feel like not going on because you put sunshine into my cold world. People around me just had to find out why i was laughing it was so surprising to them. When they found out it was you and this GREAT video, i saw them look at each other, then at me and one of them said "whats so funny"? And i went right on repeating stuff you would say and i could feel healing all thru me and laughing and trying to explain.... you were me, unencumbered, yet you, in a lovely refreshing way - to me. It was beautiful. I couldnt tell if you were doing it on purpose or if it was just you being yourself. I prefer the latter and you keep doing you. ♡¿♡ [i've never done this before and somebody will probably say "thats stupid. dont do it that way. do it like this"... but just remember this is my first time of doing this.....] PRICELESS
what's weird about this microwave is, it seems to be stainless steel on the outside. I commend you for extending its life and reducing your fingerprint to the environment. if it happens again maybe try a strong epoxy like r-180. I spilled some on my driveway 20 years ago and its never worn or cracked off, 20 years of weather and driving on it.
I like to keep things going for as long as possible for some reason. I still use a 22 year old CRT monitor, a 12 year old computer, and a 16 year old car, etc. Once something stops working properly and I'm unable to fix it, that's when I'll get rid of it and get something brand new, or second hand and newer. The paint did bubble up again around 2 months later, I think it was a combination of having it on for a long time (around 20 mins I think), and there being some water on the bottom from whatever it was I was cooking. The paint basically bubbled and melted. So I repainted it, and now I just make sure if I'm going to have it on for more than 10 mins (which is rare, 95% of time whatever it is that I'm cooking or heating up is for 5 mins or less), I will stop the microwave at around 10 mins, open the door, wipe up any water that might be on the bottom, let things cool for around a minute, and then put it on again. It sounds more inconvenient than it is. But it's now several months later and the paint is still fine.
@@RPKGameVids I I have a Microwave with the same issues. And I painted it, after (first) neutralising the rust with phosphoric acid. Then paint. The same problem always returns! However, I don't like to throw away Appliances for ecological reasons. My next plan is to remove all rust. THEN - set the Microwave level in all directions. Mix up some two-part Epoxy, and pour around the rusted circle. I think this might just work. There is an awful lot of point-pressure placed on the painted surface - from the contact with the three small wheels. If the Microwave is perfectly level, the epoxy should flow evenly around the circle. Trial and Error, as one guy below says. Good on you for trying! Greetings from Australia.
Maybe a new microwave but I do appliance installs, the woman's microwave had rust just like this 1, she bought a new 1, my micro was junk so I took hers and I'm in the process of cleaning, point is I could buy a new 1 but its an $800 microwave she junked so for $12 I'll have a sweet microwave!!
My mother has TWO microwaves which rusted in the exact same area. Interestingly, they have the very same wheel mechanism as this. I suspect those wheels may be the problem
I did read up on patching rust holes in the microwave and it says it's ok to use like epoxy for the holes. That way your wheels will travel over ruff spots better. Than, as for paint, any appliance paint, preferably heat resistant, will work. Spray always comes out better than brushing. I had an old microwave that actually had holes from the rust. I went ahead and bought a new one, our outside had become extremely yellowed by the florescent lights, so looked terrible. But it worked very well. So I plan on repairing the insde and donate it to a cause. I am hoping being a non baked on finish, it won't hurt anyone. But id say as long as you cant smell it, it's safe. It is a 200 dollar microwave, so if someone can pay 20 bucks at goodwill. It'd be a decent purchase for someone short of funds. The color match was decent. Probably could have used a couple more coats. You don't see under the dish anyway. You did fine.
Yourmicrowave is identical to mine , a Sharp. My first Sharp lasted twenty years and the paint never lost it's integerity, the electrics failed. This one is only ten years old !!!
This one was made by Tesco. I think the paint failed because I would never wipe it dry after cooking something, and that was because I had no idea you were supposed to do that.
do you remember the name of the company or product you used? Ive heard some of the microwave paints are better than others and the paint you used looks like a good one! Thanks!
I bought one today and the rust has way gone out of hand but I’ll give it a go , let you know how it goes thanks for vid, the more I clean mine at moment more paint is coming off
I can't remember the name of the paint but yes it is for microwaves, and it's not any good, the paint started bubbling a few months later so I just ended up throwing the microwave out and buying a new one.
It was called Kitchenwareonline Microwave Oven Touch Up Paint. It's not that great though as it melted when I had the microwave cooking something for around 20 minutes.
I'm on my 3rd microwave in 12 months through same problem because my very lazy grown up sons never bloody wipe it out after use, I've threatened them with death, pain and torture even clobbered them a few times lol, so they can buy a new one
Mine was way way worse than this and only on the bottom. I did the cell phone thing and it seems there's radiation leaking out - shame too cause it's only 2 years old! Don't think i'll be buying another hamilton beach brand. For now, i'm holding off buying another and i've started using my air fryer/toast oven to heat up my leftovers - it's way more hassle but works good enough.
Hi - that's something i'd seen where you put your cell inside and shut the door - using the microwave as a kinda feraday cage and now if you place a call to that cell, you should not hear it ring; meaning that if a cell signal can get through then radiation can also get through.
sure thing. You're very welcome. In my case, i was blessed by a new and generous friend, who shipped me a brand new microwave! I should test this new one for radiation, it occurs to me. btw. you can buy a rad decector for cheap. the cell trick may indeed work but idk - for sure about that.
I found it on ebay. The particular paint that I used wasn't that good because after a few months it would start bubbling up and I would have the same problem again. So I ended up taking the microwave to the dump and I bought a new one.
my old 70s microwave is stainless steel, with water proof digital panel controls. I guess today's manufacturers see you all coming. although, you can still get stainless steel today for a little extra.
That would've been a lot easier and quicker, it was a pain sanding it with sandpaper. Also, I've made an update video on this, the paint didn't hold up at all when I had it on for around 20 mins. I've repainted now though and I make sure that I don't have it on for as long, which is fine because 99% of the time I only have it on for around 5 mins or less. It's now months later and the paint is still fine.
@@RPKGameVids so I have Rust-Oleum HIGH HEAT protective enamel. Resists heat up to 1200deg.. Some articles say it's fine and some say don't do it as paint is toxic etc.. I'm gonna do it anyway, watcha think??
The paint isn't much good, it bubbled after a few months. But they're now selling improved versions, who knows if it'll be much better or not: www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?_dkr=1&iconV2Request=true&_blrs=recall_filtering&_ssn=kitchenwareonline&store_cat=0&store_name=kitchenwareonline&_oac=1&_nkw=paint
Prevention is better than cure. Problem is people don't mop up the condensation after use especially when there is a lot of moisture, two seconds to dry the the cavity and door. Rub down the effected area with a medium wet/dry sandpaper until clear of any rust and give it a few coats of oil based model enamel with a light rub down after each coat. Job done. Do not pay extortionate prices for what is really just paint. Make sure it is completely dry before use, absolutely harmless.
Have you still got the paint and instructions? I am a Disabled Lady and I get everything off eBay (or QVC), but I need to know if this paint is the toxic stuff please? You know how you have to pain it and Run, then keep all the windows open for 6 hours? Well me with my head in my microwave is claustrophobic enough, but I am also on 16 hours a day Oxygen and still Shielding so I'm not good at running or breathing if it comes to that? Are there any fumes and stuff please? Cheers Matey. Lorna x x x x
Sorry I completely forgot. I don't have the tin of paint anymore, but here it is for sale, it can also be found on ebay www.kitchenwareonline.com/microwave-oven-touch-up-paint-kit-ivory-c2x15632205

Not cleaning spills and cooking yur paint with the spill is the problem. I also learn cooking everything with a bacon plate like item. This will absorbs so much of yur heat than just using yur glass plate. Its some times add 3 to 4 min to the microwave instead of the item at lease for mine it did!?
im dealing with a rusty microwave and im kinf of concerned about what kind of damage it does to our food microwaving it with rust. then to us consuming the food. man i would need so much time cooking if i didnt have a microwave to use. i bet id feel better. i think ill just buy a new microwave
My 1.1 CF Magic Chef microwave developed a smaller amount of chipping under the wheels after 5 months, no rust. Magic Chef replaced it no charge. Try the customer service of your microwave first. Reply
Some folks live paycheck to paycheck, or on a fixed income and don’t always have the extra cash lying around for a new microwave + it’s pretty stupid to toss a working microwave on account of some minor rust.

Also, I've made an update video on this, the paint didn't hold up at all when I had it on for around 20 mins. I've repainted now though and I make sure that I don't have it on for as long, which is fine because 99% of the time I only have it on for around 5 mins or less. It's now months later and the paint is still fine.
@@RPKGameVids so I have Rust-Oleum HIGH HEAT protective enamel. Resists heat up to 1200deg.. Some articles say it's fine and some say don't do it as paint is toxic etc.. I'm gonna do it anyway, watcha think??
I don't think I'd risk it.
There's something called QB microwave cavity spray paint, it might be better than the paint I used.
Are you sure that are theren't any leaks of microwaves ?
I'm sure it wasn't so rusty that there were any holes, and I didn't see any holes.
@@RPKGameVids Thanks !
I didn’t know that this can be fixed! Is it safe?
I'm guessing it is, lol.
What paint did you use?
Please can you drop the link to the paint so I can get it
The paint isn't much good, it bubbled after a few months. But they're now selling improved versions, who knows if it'll be much better or not: www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?_dkr=1&iconV2Request=true&_blrs=recall_filtering&_ssn=kitchenwareonline&store_cat=0&store_name=kitchenwareonline&_oac=1&_nkw=paint
My boyfriend messed up my microwave by never cleaning it... so annoyed
Grazie ora li farò col mio microonde👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻💎
The directions said "several light coats of paint"
Prevention is better than cure. Problem is people don't mop up the condensation after use especially when there is a lot of moisture, two seconds to dry the the cavity and door. Rub down the effected area with a medium wet/dry sandpaper until clear of any rust and give it a few coats of oil based model enamel with a light rub down after each coat. Job done. Do not pay extortionate prices for what is really just paint. Make sure it is completely dry before use, absolutely harmless.
Yes, but how did the burger taste ?
Awesome!
Have you still got the paint and instructions? I am a Disabled Lady and I get everything off eBay (or QVC), but I need to know if this paint is the toxic stuff please? You know how you have to pain it and Run, then keep all the windows open for 6 hours?
Well me with my head in my microwave is claustrophobic enough, but I am also on 16 hours a day Oxygen and still Shielding so I'm not good at running or breathing if it comes to that? Are there any fumes and stuff please?
Cheers Matey.

I'll look into it and get back to you.
Sorry I completely forgot.
I don't have the tin of paint anymore, but here it is for sale, it can also be found on ebay www.kitchenwareonline.com/microwave-oven-touch-up-paint-kit-ivory-c2x15632205
@@RPKGameVids Woa! Thanks very much for trying and replying. Much Appreciated Hun. I took the safest route for me and yesterday Argos delivered my brand new Microwave. I am so glad. Thank you very much for your help. xxxxxxx
Not cleaning spills and cooking yur paint with the spill is the problem. I also learn cooking everything with a bacon plate like item. This will absorbs so much of yur heat than just using yur glass plate. Its some times add 3 to 4 min to the microwave instead of the item at lease for mine it did!?
im dealing with a rusty microwave and im kinf of concerned about what kind of damage it does to our food microwaving it with rust. then to us consuming the food. man i would need so much time cooking if i didnt have a microwave to use. i bet id feel better. i think ill just buy a new microwave
I throw in the trash and buy new one
My 1.1 CF Magic Chef microwave developed a smaller amount of chipping under the wheels after 5 months, no rust. Magic Chef replaced it no charge. Try the customer service of your microwave first.

cool
Enemel paint or some other
Also, Hydrogen peroxide removes rust. Apply and let it sit on rust, then wipe away
dub idolo
Hmm
Thanks. Really effective, but I'm not doing that.
Please wear hand gloves next time, so u don’t get a rust bite
What's rust bite?
Very lenghty vdo
In this case, I’m thinking it’s probably best to purchase a new microwave.
Ms. Purple Apple That defeats the point of painting it.
DMESSER exactly
I just cleaned well and put olive oil around all that is rusted and now is working perfectly!
Some folks live paycheck to paycheck, or on a fixed income and don’t always have the extra cash lying around for a new microwave + it’s pretty stupid to toss a working microwave on account of some minor rust.
Looks great, You could also get yourself a microwave food cover from The Pound Shop or from IKEA stops the splattering of food. 👍🏼
