Hi everyone,

I've got a tandoori oven style barbeque (Steel underneath) where some of
the parts have the coating flaked off and have gone rusty over the
winter. (legs and wind sheild bits mostly)

can I just wirebrush the rust off or treat it with rust remover then
re-hammerite it?

The windsheild bit would get pretty hot, because it supports the grill
rack when used as an open barbecue. Is there a special metal paint for
hot situations?

I don't want to get rid of the barbecue bit and just buy a new one
because it's fairly sturdy in construction and actually cooks stuff
quite well.

Hammerite is rubber based, hence not heat resisting at all.
They have stuff in Halfords that is heat resisting for cars etc.

Hammerite is not rubber based, it is a styrenated alkyd resin with
inorganic fillers and pigments. It's not designed for use on hot surfaces.

I thought this was about furbishing a barbecue but what you actually
meant was 'refurbishing a barbecue'.

What's with this modern fashion for splitting perfectly good words
into their component parts which often don't mean the same thing?
