My CK has all its shelves and they are largely in good shape, but covered in some sort of white, crystalline effluence which makes them rough to the touch. They also have minor rust spots mostly where the shelves rest on the inner cabinet, which has stained the porcelain. I removed the rust and touched it up with stainless appliance epoxy temporarily.

Has anyone blasted the shelves and painted them with epoxy or powdercoat?

I have blasted them and painted them with single stage enamel.... It worked great and they have been painted for 20 years and they still look just like I painted them yesterday...

Still look new but it was professionally done.

Thanks. I'd like to stave off the rust for awhile so I will likely wire brush and epoxy.

My fridge is complete with the basket and chiller, but missing the "frame" for one of the sliding shelves. I have a shelf from a new fridge I'm going to cut down temporarily till I run across one of those.

Hi Rick. Can you give us a link to the business you used, or a thread where you've posted it? Much appreciated! Sincerely, David
