The colored ones I've seen for sale have a porcelain coating, not paint. I
think your paint job will last about 20 minutes.
If you use high temperature grill paint, you may get 30 minutes.
There are "stove paints" that withstand temp to 1200* . I don't think
they are for food contact surfaces.

Just a thought.... Don't they sell "high temperature" paints for things
like barbeque grills and engine exhaust manifolds?
I don't know the specs on those, but they might just take the heat at
those locations.

Dupli-Color makes a high heat manifold paint. It says on the can it's
good to 1200º. I painted my entire cat back dual exhaust system 2
months ago. Still black and no rust, but it's not on the manifold.

I wonder if the paint will be able to endure the kind of scrubbing that's
usually needed to clean drip pans.
Just repaint them without scrubbing. :-)

Drippings from the pan makes some goooood gravy.

Nope! re-"Chrome" the originals :)

"Well, it doesn't happen all the time, but when it happens, it happens constantly."
This discussion's got me thinking that the face of my favorite hammer is all
dinged from hitting the nails. I wonder where I can get it refinished.
Good luck. I have a couple of hammer heads without handles.
I get the gag, but just in case some of us here don't know this....
Rub your hammer's face on a concrete surface occassionally so it gets
slightly roughened.
That's what I was tought eons ago. The rougher surface helps prevent
nails bending if you get a little sloppy about not striking them dead
on. They don't skid on the hammer face as much as they do when it's
glassy smooth.
Good luck finding a re-chromer. The EPA has so many regs about the
chemicals used that only a big shop can afford it.
Unless you live in Orange Co., California, that is. :-)

I doubt it. As you mentioned earlier, the colored pans are most often a
porcelain variant which will take the abuse of vigorous cleaning.

I even doubt they would chrome oven drip pans, but I did live near an
Orange grove in Florida.

I think oven pans are what - five bucks each at Home Despot? One would have
to be quite the chump to pay to have them rechromed.
Just in case I didn't understand you correctly, your subject line said
"Oven Drip Pans".
Izzat what you really meant, cause I've never seen chromed pans which go
inside an oven, but I guess they could exist.
Were you maybe trying to describe the round pans which go under electric
heating elements on the top of the stove?

If I had chrome drip pans I would try to sell them on ebayy.
For five bucks; make sure, the finish is not pinged or damaged.

Would four cost $40.00?
I had a Kenmore (Roper) gas range with chrome pans. I never saw any pans
that were not made for electric ranges.
Probably closer to $30.00 in black, if the OP meant "Range drip pans"
like these:
I can't see why anyone would need FOUR oven drip pans, and can't recall
ever seeing any chromed oven pans anyway.
I think we've just about "saucered and blowed" this thread now, eh?
Paint them and you food will be contaminated with the paint fumes

I concede; never having a chrome drip pan!

"equal opportunity, not equal results"
If you were questioning the metaphor, it's:
A Midland US expression, I think. "Saucered and blown" (or "sassered and
blowed" or the like) means "ready" or "finished". The basic concept is
that the coffee in the cup is too hot to drink, so one pours some into
the saucer and blows on it until it's cool enough to drink, then pours
it back into the cup.

I just bought a set of four porcelain ones for about $16.00 at Walmart.
I am the original (idiot) poster and I did mean the four drip pans on
the stove that surround the gas burner. They do cost anywhere from 5
to $10 a piece and the black porcelain ones are around 7 with shipping.
I refuse to believe that anyone whose name starts with Jeff could
possibly be an idiot.
But I do think that buying the "tailor made" black ones is the way to go.

Yes; given the cost of a spray/porcelain/paint type product, time,
effort and no assurance they will work as stated.
Get the old surface completely free of grease and oil with a lye wash
or similar and then give the surface some tooth with wet or dry
sandpaper, Use barbecue black or engine black. If available the satin
finish seems to hold up the best. Warm the surface to about 200 in
the oven before painting and then put them back in the oven to cure
and it should last a good time. You might hav to refinish them sooner
than the porcelain ones but paint is cheap. Holds up well on
motorcycle parts too, never
liked chrome.
So you've painted chrome, with success?
