Our fridge starting showing rust only a few years after purchasing it, so rather than buying a new fridge to replace one that worked perfectly fine, I painted it. This shows the steps I took to stop the rust and paint the fridge with appliance epoxy spray paint. Here's how to paint a fridge to stop rust and make it look new.

If anyone is watching this now I used Lysol lime and rust clinging gel (for toilets) and put plastic food wrap over it I let it rest for a gooooood while (1 hour lol) And the rust was gone.

So glad I found this tutorial! I just did the first few steps. I’m about to take the door off, tape it up, and go for it! You might have said, but I missed it, but how long did you let the rust reformer dry? I’ll probably have figured that out by time you see this and can reply, but maybe others are curious, too. Thx again for the tutorial!

I’m so glad I found your tutorial, I am in the process of refurbishing my fridge. Do I need to use rust reformer if my fridge does not have any rust?

Great job on the fridge freezer , just been searching about can you paint a fridge freezer . What is the colour of the kitchen unit’s, love the colour

@lawrencecampagna626 3 года назад

If you live near the beach like I do, rust is inevitable in those fridge types. All mine have done it. Great tutorial thanks!

@cjromb 2 года назад

You might have said, but how long did you let the rust reformer dry before hitting it the first time with the appliance epoxy? I just did the first few steps. I’m about to tape off the door, and go for it! Thx for taking the time to put this tutorial together. Super helpful.

How many cans of appliance approximate did you use?

Did you replace the gaskets as well ?

I think mine rusted from cleaning it with disinfectant wipes.

@stevend.3508 3 года назад

no it is garbage Chinese steel/metal used to make these appliances.

@donbailey6600 3 года назад

Ours rusted after my wife cleaned it with a clorox product. That was about 2 years ago and it's getting worse. It really bothers her. It's a Roper also. Coincidence I'm sure.

How do I patch it up small rusty spots (corners) of a freezer? I got a free one and want to make it look nicer

@seekwisdom5102 2 года назад

@@RefreshLiving Thanks! I used baking powder and then sprayed vinegar and the rust cleaned up and a black spot was left. I cleaned it, let it dry and sprayed with appliance epoxy, the color didn’t have to match because it is not gonna live inside the house anyway. It worked. The paint is taking a while to dry as its humid here. I am happy to have watched your video bc it gave ideas :)

So funny I have the exact same fridge and it is rusting in the same areas. It was stored outside for several years.

Did yours rust horribly too??

@patriciamariemitchel Год назад

Can you paint over the black Reformer with white Epoxy?

@patriciamariemitchel Год назад

@@RefreshLiving, thank you. I just figured out I'm probably going to need something like Bondo All-Purpose Putty & Cream Hardener.

@bituingmarikit Год назад

Hi, is it possible to paint it with white? (our fridge is white) Or the only option is black since the rust primer is black? thank you so much.

@nancytammen3084 Год назад

Painters tape won't stick to the gaskets. Any suggestions.

@Thr0mamay Год назад

frog tape. or just make sure its really clean so the adhesive sticks better. I have heard of pros using Vaseline instead of tape. paint wont stick or dry out on Vaseline, then you just wipe it off when the paint is dry.
