Oven interior surfaces flake, rust, or enamel chips off, sometimes exposing metal.

Safety first: Ensure the oven is cool before inspection.

• Assess damage: Small chips can often be left if not in direct contact with elements, but exposed metal may rust.
• Clean and dry: Remove loose enamel and clean the area thoroughly. Keep it dry to minimize corrosion.
• Touch-up: High-temperature enamel touch-up paint may be used on minor areas, following manufacturer guidance.
• Severe damage: If large areas are affected or metal is heavily corroded, consult a technician; cavity replacement is rarely economical and may mean replacing the oven.
