samw1 Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 HI all i have an oil drum I weill be converting into my hood using the side draft method going straight out the roof. Everything is going smooth besides the fact I dont know what type of paint i should use to paint the hood. I have some high temp paint for stoves that is suspose to be good but my question is will it be good enough. What type of precautions do i need and any thing else you can think of. Thanks all.

matto Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 if you want to paint it stove paint will be fine. if you want it looking new you may have to paint it every couple of years. as for prep remove rust, ant old paint. you don't have to remove the old paint if you don't want to. but stove paint, engine paint or header/manifold paint will also work. the header paint might give you a higher temp range. the engine paint more color options. but plain old black stove paint will work fine.
