    Of course you could spray it or paint it. But whether the paint will stay on is quite another question.
    I can afford anything that I want.
    Just so long as I don't want much.

    Bear in mind that the green colour on your cooker isn't paint, but enamel. Enamel is effectively liquid glass applied to the steel and then baked in an oven at temperatures exceeding 1000c where by the enamel adheres to the steel.

    You would need to get high temperature paint ansd then whether the paint adheres to the enamal is another thing.

    What about radiator enamel that should do the job and it is available as a spray.
