I just wanted to know why did my stove paint get like this? I got a new stove in April, so I was doing a break in fire to cured the paint. Stove was burning at 650 on the stove top. Nothing was glowing. Or any signs of overfiring . Air was turned down flue was 350 degrees.

I’m thinking those parts cured and the other areas have not. Get her rippin’ and it should even out.
I just took the picture again without the flash from the camera and this is how it looks now.i only been burning for a week in April, so it looks like it’s not fully cured.

Im not a paint expert.
Stove polish on a painted stove as this is, is not recommended.
Given the history I do think it needs further curing.
