Default Paint For Inside Microwave Oven

Our kitchen's GE microwave oven is still working fine, but the white paint on the oven floor is cracked and peeling off where the rollers on the round three wheeled carriage under the rotating glass dish have been rolling over it for a few years now.The bare steel is exposed and getting slightly rusted and the peeling paint trail is widening. Its appearance mildly annoys me every time I see it.Anone know what paint(s) are suitable for brushing over the worn area to improve appearances? Perhaps one of those little brush top bottles of white appliance touch up paint would do the trick.I'm thinking that because the paint is right up against a metal surface it probably can't absorb much of the microwave energy and get heated anyway.

I would just go with a good epoxy paint, or maybe even just a good Rustoleum spray paint. HEAT is not an issue, only wearability.
