Oven cavity enamel is chipped or rusting, exposing bare metal

Safety: Ensure the oven is cool and disconnected before working inside.

• Clean area: Remove loose rust and clean the area with a mild detergent. Dry thoroughly.
• Use high-temperature enamel repair: Apply a food-safe, high-temperature enamel touch-up paint suitable for ovens to small chips, following the product instructions.
• Avoid further damage: Do not use metal tools or harsh abrasives on the enamel. Use appropriate oven-safe cookware.
• Severe damage: If large areas are rusted through, the cavity may be unsafe and the oven should be assessed by a professional; cavity replacement is often uneconomical.
