Duncan on 2019-10-12 12:26:53 | Question:
Would this product be suitable for painting the glazed tiles surrounding my open fireplace? Thanks |
Answer from Rawlins’ Technical Team:
Please refer to our Blog Post: Painting the Walls around a Fireplace or Multi Fuel Stove | |
Vicki on 2019-01-13 13:34:18 | Question: Can I use Coo Var on heat resistant boarding surrounding a multi fuel stove? (approx 8" away from stove). Thank you |
Answer from Rawlins’ Technical Team: Coo-Var Heat Resistant Satin Black Enamel MAY be suitable but it should be noted that it is heat resistant not fire resistant and we also assume it is not an open fire. Finally although it would appear dry, full properties are only obtained when heated above 220°C so some areas may never be fully cured if it the surfaces do not reach this temperature. | |
Stuart Anderson on 2018-12-22 21:38:39 | Question: Can I use this inside an electric fan oven where the enamel ha chipped off? |
Answer from Rawlins’ Technical Team: No. | |
Hannah on 2018-10-10 16:51:04 | Question: I presume from the picture that this paint can be used on the outside of a wood burning stove? |
Answer from Rawlins’ Technical Team: Yes it can assuming temperatures won't exceed 600°C, please see remarks on painting / curing process in the product data sheet (downloadable from the product page). | |
Heather on 2018-04-10 15:28:53 | Question: I have a dimplex "electric stove" heater i use at work, it has small grill on the front that is black and over time the heat passing thru it has worn the paint away. Would this paint work to cover that affected area? I don't want to start a fire by using incorrect paint to fix it. |
Answer from Rawlins’ Technical Team: Coo-Var Heat Resistant Satin Black should be fine for this as the exposure temp is 600°C. | |
Jennifer on 2017-03-07 06:44:17 | Question: Can this paint be used inside and outside of an oven door? |
Answer from Rawlins’ Technical Team: Yes, but it must not be in direct contact with flames and not exceed 650°C. Please also note: The dry film only fully cures after heating, slowly, to above 220°C for 20 to 30 minutes. Unless fully cured the film remains thermoplastic and sensitive to some solvents. The film may be cured in-service, some fume and light smoke generation is associated with the initial cure. | |
Paul on 2017-03-05 19:51:36 | Question: Hi, can this be painted over an existing enamel finish? I'm looking to spruce up a wood-burning stove.
Thanks. |
Answer from Rawlins’ Technical Team: Coo-Var Heat Resistant Satin Black can be applied over other enamels as long as they are also heat resistant. Clean and lightly abrade to provide a key before over coating. | |
Evelyn Kaplan on 2016-04-12 09:55:04 | Question: Can I apply heat resistant paint directly to my wood burning stove? |
Answer from Rawlins’ Technical Team: Yes on any areas that are not subject to direct flame contact and remain below 600°C. | |
