Yes you do, you need to use "appliance paint." Sold in any paint store.
Hello, I consider myself a very experienced spray painter and I don’t think I would personally consider painting a refrigerator. To get a smooth blemish free flawless finish would be very hard -I’m not sure my results would be satisfying/acceptable. Im not sure how it would wear or withstand frequent cleaning with daily use.
Instead I would consider using a skin. Here’s a link to skins that you can purchase. Hope this helps!

There are appliance paints available. Too you can find appliance decals, likely online.

Aimee...My husband uses appliance spray paint and it works very well.
You can also purchase specific fridge "wraps" online. They come in different colours, patterns, styles etc.
Spray paint made especially for appliances would likely work the best for you. You could do some color blocking by masking off different areas if that pleases you.
