Can I safely paint this chimney?
 

It's made up of cement blocks and used by one wood stove only. It's already
painted yellow by the previous owners but was wondering if I could paint it
something else.

thanks

Well I would guess it would be safe assuming you don't fall off a latter
or something. If it was properly constructed in the first place it should
be fine.

I was thinking it might be a fire hazard but I supposed the outside doesn't
get hot enought to ignite

Believe us, if the outside of your chimbley gets hot enough to ignite
paint, then deciding whether to paint it or not is the least of your
problems.

No, it will still be a chimney.

The law is all block chimneys must be painted yellow. Ok just use
exterior latex....
