Painting electric heaters

I just bought a small cottage. The electric heaters along the base boards are a little dates and slightly rusty. Can I paint them? Will the heat affect the paint?

  • We took some of our previously dried assorted peppers and crushed them up in a bag. Jalapeño, cayenne and other peppers.
  • After crushing up the peppers, dump them into a boiling pot of water.
  • After boiling the crushed up peppers for maybe 15-20 minutes, pour the solution into a bowl and strain out the crushed peppers. We used a paper towel because it was handy. Put it over the bowl and pour slowly.

    not sure. I noticed that while I was spraying, I was also adjusting the plants around the cages for better support, I could definitely smell/taste the peppers in the air. Enough to make me cough a little and get my head out of there. That might also be because it was still floating around in the air.
