Hi all

In my microwave, under the turntable paint has peeled off in some
areas and the underlying metal is starting to rust.

Is there any hazard in using the Microwave in this condition?


The only real danger is letting it rust through so the microwaves can leak
out and cook you.

Sand it down to clean metal and slap somr Hammerite paint on it.

My last microwave was rusting through the bottom so I kept a leakage warning
meter close at hand - the door mechanism/safety interlock failed before the
corroded case became dangerous.
