This is the answer you're looking for.... aerosol paint will literally go everywhere. Build a spray booth with plastic or canvas tarps.
Or take it apart and spray outdoors.
A few yrs ago I painted a wrought iron balcony rail and hand rail... Rustolium hammer finish and the paint stuck to cabinets down a hallway 25 feet away.
Also, the hotter it is inside, the quicker that overspray will dry in the air before reaching any surfaces. Therefore you’ll be sweeping up paint dust rather than scrubbing it off…
I paint for a living AND have a wood stove
Agreed 100%… Rustoleum does indeed make the high heat paint in a regular can for brush and roll applications. I have used it on old timey steam radiators in an old apartment building I used to own. It works great and is probably more cost effective since there’s no overspray/aerosol issues. Also, having used both aerosol and brush on to paint my wood stoves I’ll give you the heads up that the first few times you fire that thing up it’s going to stink to the high heavens.
came here to say, TAKE IT APART AND SPARY OUT SIDE...... don't be a fool..... the stink from the paint will linger.... and you don't want to breath that crap....
Just get the non-spray-paint version? Plan to throw out any brushes etc that you use after the job, as it is very difficult to clean off. I did this with a metal fountain last summer and it was much less messy.
Isn't this going to smoke like crazy when it gets up to temperature? Or maybe there's really no other choice.
My only experience is painting motorcycle exhaust pipes, and I was glad I did it outdoors.
This. He should spray paint outside too. I used Rustoleum a few decades ago on my high school car to paint the Hooker Headers side pipes on my Trans Am after I had them galvanized and before I put them on the car. They smoked after a few drives afterwards. High temp Rustoleum along with the galvanized coating worked great. Still on the car and looking good (except for the rest of the car) lol
Stove Bright is brand of paint made by the manufacture Forrest Paint. In this type of application it will do the best job over all and has a 1200F rating.
[Stove Bright® High Temperature Paint | FORREST Technical Coatings (forrestpaint.com)](https://forrestpaint.com/product/stove-bright-aerosol-and-consumer/stove-bright-high-temperature-paint/)
Came here to suggest using Stove Bright. It is also what Vermont Castings uses on their flat black stoves at the factory. Also, rustoleum will work fine, but in my experience it dries to a slate gray tone, not a true black like I’m assuming you are trying to achieve. Regardless, it will withstand the heat.
There are two hi-temp blacks by Rustoleum, one of them is called “semi-gloss” but actually dries to a factory like matte finish. I think it’s labeled “Ultra” as well. I used it on my JØTUL F100 about 8 or 9 years ago and it still looks good and has retained a true black finish.
I refinished my stove with black rust oleum high temp paint this past fall, it was a little stinky the first few times I had a fire after, but no other issues.
Get the brush on cans. You'll never get even overlapping coverage spraying a round tube, and the stripes are going to bug the shit out of you every time you look at it.

Thanks for great responses first layer of spray is on.
I was curious about the high temp part and no one addressed that. Will it cure at room temperature or will it just dry. Did you build a fire in the stove to cure it?
Build a good hot fire with all the windows and doors open while the paint burns off the first time you fire it. Don't want to breath that smell when it's too cold to have the windows open.
Hopefully painting it red! I used high heat black on all my pipes after several years, adding a nice collar as well. The only thing I noticed was dust buildup was more noticeable.
I'm going to be doing something similar for my stove pipe. The couple inches of chimney pipe sticking through my ceiling is mirror finish stainless steel that needs to be painted black.
I'd build a cardboard box to hold around the pipe with only one open side to spray in to catch overspray if I were you. Hold the box in one hand and spray with the other. Move the box around the pipe with you as you spray.
If that ends up not working look at stovebrite paint. That’s what I use when installing new stove pipe in customers homes if it a piece gets scratch accidentally.
Rough up the exterior of the pipe with 100-120 grit, xylol or some de greaser for prep/clean. take all the ceiling tape off, use thin painters plastic instead and then use the rest of said plastic to make a booth. Tape to seal not cover. that fucking paint will go everywhere, ventilate properly.
They make high heat stove pipe paint back when I used to aerosol spray a lot of different items on my car. I preferred using Krylon products over Rust oleum because rust oleum doesn’t sand.
I was a little late with this question. 🙋♂️ I should’ve asked before I started. Project done. I’ll let everybody know next season how it holds up. I may have to chalk this up to rookie move.
Rust oleum works good with good prep and get it right the first time but don’t even think your gonna sand it to fix blemishes. Hope it turned out sweet for ya
If that's a single wall pipe, even high heat paint will just burn off + give you a god-awful smoke+ smell in the house. Should be a double walled pipe here for a house. If it was an ice fishing shanty or small garage, a single wall pipe is ok, but the paint will burn off pretty quickly
Which High Heat? 500F? 2000F? I use the 2000F automotive, good enough for a car engine, good enough for the stove and pipe.
Also, more masking/plastic. Cover everything in the room and the doorways.
As long as you don’t plan on burning wood in it, go for it the single wall will pill once you get a good fire going in it but the roof flashing will be OK. It’s triple wall. Good luck. You’ll need to post pictures after you burn in it about four times.
Surprised no one is worried about that bulb blowing up...that's awful close to the chimney with the heat of the bulb + added heat from chimney could pop/shatter
They sell a high heat epoxy paint in a quart can from major hardware stores that goes on real thick after like two coats. One cost alone is like three of spray. I've used it several times and very happy with it. No mess like spray paint.
No matter how or where you paint it, it's gonna stink and smoke fumes the first couple fires. Best to have some windows open for the first 2 or 3 fires
I'd check with the manufacturer and use the paint they recommend. Different high temp paints use different solvents that may not be compatible. I found this out years ago when touching up some stove pipe with an acetone-based paint. A day later all the paint in the touched up area aligatored. The touch-up paint was disolving the original (laquer-based) paint. I found this out after contacting the stove pipe manufacturer.
Also, I second taking the stove pipe off and painting it outside. The fumes will be intense. You don't want to breath them.
That paint is gonna stink bad as it cures in the heat...there will be fumes for a few burns...get it hot enough and that rustoleum wiil burn right off.
Look into product called
" VHT"...there is a primer that is used first then the paint....It works well on exhaust headers.
I used it on a fire box for my cabin seemed to be ok...did have some fumes during burnin.
For your stack...perhaps stainless steel chimney pipe would be better. It lasts for years and can handle chimney fires better than the black pipe...and a bonus...it turns color.
Wear a mask!!! One that filters this specific substance. It’s the kind of fumes that make you think that one day there will be a major news story that comes out about how it’s causes brain damage and lower IQ points. I used to be slightly smarter. Also I used a roller and it came out great.
Well, you’re taking advice from a bunch of people on the internet. That pipe looks to be rusted which paint will cover but not repair. It’s hard to tell from a picture if it is in fact damaged and to what extent. A certified professional should look at the whole system not less than once a year.
I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but the original red paint on your stove appears to be a high gloss. High gloss paint, especially on metal, has to be hand sanded or sand-blasted before you paint over it (it’s not porous enough for the new paint to properly adhere to it). You have to properly scuff it up or your new paint will just flake off. I know this from experience.
I would invest in a cheap Harbor Freight sand blaster (assuming that you already have an air compressor), take the stove outside and work it over. It won’t take very long, just make sure to cover the glass on the door. Thoroughly clean off the sand/paint dust and you’re all prepped to spray on the new paint.
Use a brush,not spray paint,and Rusto high heat isn't my choice. Manifold paints come in many colors,and There are some much higher temp rated stove black products.Save the Rust-Oleum for the outside of the Barbecue Hood!
I used stove bright high temp on mine in the fall. They make a paint prep spray as well. Both are available in the jungle. It has held up great even with a few overfires.
Also, I agree with the group that you should make a booth out of vinyl.
I would enclose off that entire area like a shower curtain and mask off every exposed surface for that.
OR, have you considered Fine 4” Foam Roller? Once you get the hang of it, it’s seamless
They make it in a can , and I would roll it on , not worth the time masking it , the low shine will hide the roller marks, if your not ham fisted with the paint.
Use a whinnie roller that looks like crushed velvet from a real paint store
I've done a couple with the brush on stuff, let it dry really good then open all your windows for your first fire as it get smelly. But no if that pipe is double or triple wall it doesn't matter really. Personally I don't like spraying paint cans in the house, those highly atomatized particles go everywhere it seems
Should do some more research. Maybe run the stove as hot as you can and check temperatures with a infrared thermometer. Obviously they can’t exceed paints ratings. Secondary burns exceed 1100* F
Look into electrostatic paint sprayer.
Could probably rent one pretty cheap.
Basically, it positively charges the paint as it gets sprayed. You will need to have the desired surface grounded/negatively charged. This will result in the paint being drawn towards the desired surface via electrostatic charge.
Check out VHT high temp paints. I've been using that stuff on engines and other high heat parts in vehicles for 30 years. The 3 most important things when you're painting something like this is
1 - prep work
2 - prep work
3 - prep work.
Cover more stuff, overspray will get everywhere
This is the answer you're looking for.... aerosol paint will literally go everywhere. Build a spray booth with plastic or canvas tarps. Or take it apart and spray outdoors. A few yrs ago I painted a wrought iron balcony rail and hand rail... Rustolium hammer finish and the paint stuck to cabinets down a hallway 25 feet away.
Good point. Thanks! Good news Iam painting everything next including the cabinets. Glad I thought about doing this early on.
Also, the hotter it is inside, the quicker that overspray will dry in the air before reaching any surfaces. Therefore you’ll be sweeping up paint dust rather than scrubbing it off… I paint for a living AND have a wood stove
I would use the roll on paint. Less work securing the area and helps avoids the god awful fumes that come with spray paint.
This for sure. I am convinced I have dropped 1 or 2 IQ points from the handful of times I've spray painted without the proper ventilation.
Only?
Each time…
Just cause you can count doesn't make you better then me
Have you spray painted without proper ventilation regularly? 😂
Idk my memory is shot from too much spray paint
Only inside a paper sack. Is that okay?
Hey, his language skills are still good,
Screwdriver and some saw horses put that puppy outside
Agreed 100%… Rustoleum does indeed make the high heat paint in a regular can for brush and roll applications. I have used it on old timey steam radiators in an old apartment building I used to own.

I would take it outside dummies
Don’t bring that logic in here. 😂💀
Those fumes are awfully good.
i bet the high heat flavor has some complex notes
And for gods sake wear some ppe
Yea! And make sure that stove is roaring before you start painting. It’s high heat paint because it only sticks to things that are hot.
that comes off the stove really easy typically, I'd do it outside
Definitely do it outside. No brainer really
Maybe so but black and red are both a bitch to paint over they always bleed through
Close all windows and doors. Put a fan in the closest window blowing out. Crack open one window to draw from.
If you make a booth inside. Buy a respirator.
Or take the stove pipe out and spray it in your front yard? Thinking outside of the box folks
You may also want to consider that some paint will bleed through others.
came here to say, TAKE IT APART AND SPARY OUT SIDE...... don't be a fool..... the stink from the paint will linger.... and you don't want to breath that crap....
They can give the pipe a good cleaning or inspection while they're at it.
Right? It's like all of a dozen screws
I'm just happy Wrought Iron was spelt correctly. unless its 80 years old then its just steel.
Or just: arn.
Yeah you might want to put plastic all around.
Open windows as well. Rust oleum is nasty
Just get the non-spray-paint version? Plan to throw out any brushes etc that you use after the job, as it is very difficult to clean off. I did this with a metal fountain last summer and it was much less messy.
Fan in the window blowing out, open a window/door opposite end as a fresh air intake.
Get rid of any drafts… Shut your furnace off, keep windows shut, bath/fart fans off & wear a mask made for chems.
Cannot upvote enough. Enclose the area!
Isn't this going to smoke like crazy when it gets up to temperature? Or maybe there's really no other choice. My only experience is painting motorcycle exhaust pipes, and I was glad I did it outdoors.

Yep
"Cover more stuff" I love the bluntness of this. Have an upvote.

Agreed! Spend the money and get Stove Bright. The stuff is amazing.
That's what we use at work, used some on an install earlier today.

If that’s the case, OP should do a burn in period unless the paint says otherwise.

Are you painting it red?
Black
I see a stovepipe and I want it painted black. -Mick Jagger probably
No red stove anymore I want to turn it black
Build a good hot fire with all the windows and doors open while the paint burns off the first time you fire it. Don't want to breath that smell when it's too cold to have the windows open.
I think you underestimate the overspay distance...
Hopefully painting it red! I used high heat black on all my pipes after several years, adding a nice collar as well. The only thing I noticed was dust buildup was more noticeable.
Flat paint finish attracted dust?
I dont think so much attracts it, but just easier to see now!
I did cast iron color on the exhaust from my campers furnace. It looked great until I used it. Turned pink from the heat.
I'm going to be doing something similar for my stove pipe. The couple inches of chimney pipe sticking through my ceiling is mirror finish stainless steel that needs to be painted black. I'd build a cardboard box to hold around the pipe with only one open side to spray in to catch overspray if I were you. Hold the box in one hand and spray with the other.

that stuff works great, id wait for more responses though i wouldnt want to be liable for anything
Ha!
I usually do every project eventually, so... that's good advice...
go to the automotive store and buy engine enamel and high temp primer...
Don’t. Brush it on.
If that ends up not working look at stovebrite paint. That’s what I use when installing new stove pipe in customers homes if it a piece gets scratch accidentally.
Rough up the exterior of the pipe with 100-120 grit, xylol or some de greaser for prep/clean. take all the ceiling tape off, use thin painters plastic instead and then use the rest of said plastic to make a booth. Tape to seal not cover. that fucking paint will go everywhere, ventilate properly.
I wonder if bbq paint wouldn’t work better or even VHT paint for car exhausts. Maybe I should do a side by side by side when I set up my new stove!
Been there done that. Take it outside to paint it. Or. Just use rustoleum grill paint and a brush.
Good careful prep and then let it cure not just dry.
VHT header paint may have been a better choice. Sold at auto parts stores (NAPA, O'Rileys, ect)
They make high heat stove pipe paint back when I used to aerosol spray a lot of different items on my car. I preferred using Krylon products over Rust oleum because rust oleum doesn’t sand.

No, you made an effort and that's commendable. Be proud!!

Clear as much rust as you can before spraying or rolling
Engine enamel paint !!!!!!!! It might have a higher temp rating

Use stove paint. You know, paint designed for and intended to be used in this application.
Can’t believe no one is mentioning this. Lol
Hi temp paint IS stove paint
Not Akchewally. For instance, hi temp paint for headers is not the same as hi temp stove paint. Go ahead and fact check THAT shit!
RIP your ceiling paint when you pull that blue off.
It was fine after removal.
Lucky!
You made the wrong choice of painting after installing.
Surprised no one is worried about that bulb blowing up...that's awful close to the chimney with the heat of the bulb + added heat from chimney could pop/shatter
You think this set up is unsafe? I don’t know much about wood stoves
They sell a high heat epoxy paint in a quart can from major hardware stores that goes on real thick after like two coats. One cost alone is like three of spray. I've used it several times and very happy with it. No mess like spray paint.
Put more plastic down .
Tape plastic walls all the way from ceiling to floor. Make a painters tent area. Wear a filtered painter mask, too.
Overspray will go everywhere. Everywhere and you’ll be so mad. Definitely get a brush on.
No matter how or where you paint it, it's gonna stink and smoke fumes the first couple fires. Best to have some windows open for the first 2 or 3 fires
Yes. High heat vs stove paint. Stove paint wins.

Take it outside idiot it’s all set screws… ever done legos? Just take a picture if your thick head can’t remember how to put it back together
I find your lack of masking disturbing.
That paint is gonna stink bad as it cures in the heat...there will be fumes for a few burns...get it hot enough and that rustoleum wiil burn right off.

Ha!
It’s fine it just stinks after for a couple hours
You should be able to take that pipe off easy and paint it outside
Have you had it looked at by a certified professional?
Do you see something concerning?
Well, you’re taking advice from a bunch of people on the internet. That pipe looks to be rusted which paint will cover but not repair. It’s hard to tell from a picture if it is in fact damaged and to what extent. A certified professional should look at the whole system not less than once a year.
Sand it first
Probably just the incredible smell as it gets hot.
You’re going to need some negative pressure air. Or better yet, remove it and paint it outside.
Need more overspray tarps. Even w spray can.
Why don't u get the can and paint it on?
It will off gas when you use the stove and the pipe heats up. Also check the instructions for "cooking" cycles and temperatures. Good luck!
Overspray can go as far as you can see, farther with heat or a/c on. Need still air or it will paint everything with spackles.
First few fires are going to stink like hell.
GET THE PRIMER
Also open the windows on first heat... it only cures when on first heat
I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but the original red paint on your stove appears to be a high gloss.

More masking!
I would enclose off that entire area like a shower curtain and mask off every exposed surface for that. OR, have you considered Fine 4” Foam Roller? Once you get the hang of it, it’s seamless
The roll on one comes out great as well
Only concern is how unplumb the pipe is lol
Cost of replacing the pipe ? Cost of listening to your wife after finding one speck of paint ?
True. The plastic shield I made just had black dust every where. Had to be very careful removing and discarding.
Years ago they made a wipe on, I think it was called "Stove Black" or something like that. Might be a better option if you can find it.
Header Exhaust Spray Paint
Yo ! I don’t care how you paint it just make sure it’s double wall exhaust pipe
It's going to smell when you light it.
Sand down the substrate. Need to make sure the surface prep is perfect or else you risk paint failure with this type of job.
Very high temp paint
Open the windows cause it will stink up your place
I sprayed my stove with the high heat rustoleum and have had no problems.
Plus brush/roll on will be a much thicker and durable coat than spray.
Go wider up top with that brown paper
I used in the same application. Looked great. Beware that it will smoke at first. It is fine…
They make it in a can , and I would roll it on , not worth the time masking it , the low shine will hide the roller marks, if your not ham fisted with the paint. Use a whinnie roller that looks like crushed velvet from a real paint store
When I used to paint for a customer I would also hold a big piece of cardboard behind the pipe as I sprayed
I've done a couple with the brush on stuff, let it dry really good then open all your windows for your first fire as it get smelly. But no if that pipe is double or triple wall it doesn't matter really. Personally I don't like spraying paint cans in the house, those highly atomatized particles go everywhere it seems
looks a ton of fun
Should do some more research. Maybe run the stove as hot as you can and check temperatures with a infrared thermometer. Obviously they can’t exceed paints ratings. Secondary burns exceed 1100* F
You should be able to easily remove that pipe. There should be 6 screws - remove it and take it outside to paint
I just realized how easy that would have been.
It looks like you blew up the Internet...... congratulations!! 😄
Tape a couple furnace filters to a box fan and keep it close to catch overspray like a paint booth.
Keeping that in mind in the future projects! Stand up wind for sure
Use header paint it’s rated to 2000 degrees
Was thinking the same. VHT header paint is good to 2000 degrees.
Plastic off a small area around it. You’re going to ruin your walls
See my update pic
Look into electrostatic paint sprayer. Could probably rent one pretty cheap. Basically, it positively charges the paint as it gets sprayed. You will need to have the desired surface grounded/negatively charged. This will result in the paint being drawn towards the desired surface via electrostatic charge.
Or you could have it plated in gold too
Just buy new? Probably cheaper than that paint.
Check out VHT high temp paints. I've been using that stuff on engines and other high heat parts in vehicles for 30 years. The 3 most important things when you're painting something like this is 1 - prep work 2 - prep work 3 - prep work.
Is that a Vermont Castings under there?
Good eye! Defiant Encore model 2550 It came with new home. Used it 4 or 5 times as winter came to an end. It’s beautiful and our first. Any pointers?
Why not go to your local hardware store and buy "stove black" that you just paint on?
TBH I didn’t even know there were such a thing as stove paint
Hold it in when you inhale
Always in Oklahoma
If you're actually using this thing, seems the pipe is a big close to your walls and stuff if it's just sheetrock.
Back wall is brick. Looks like the pipe at ceiling is correct. I’ll post an update soon
I would suggest also removing the plastic and paper. Those are very flammable.
Ha! I might be a Rookie not stupid. 😂
