Most oil based paints can withstand the heat subjected to a metal range hood. Ensure that the surface is clean and deglossed, then prime any bare spots prior to applying two coats of oil based paint.

(previous answer) rust-oleum, sold in Home Depot and lowes, is a paint that can be used to paint metals.

I first totally degrease it, which isn't easy on a range hood. I then mask off things like switches. Then I first spray it an auto body primer light grey. After a complete coat of this and about 4 hour drying time, I spray the chosen colour for a finish coat. I always use high temp Tremclad spray for these.

Even though a range hood is subject to heat, it's low enough that a standard metal paint can be used. Be sure to clean the metal surface completely. If there is an existing finish, sand to a dull finish with an ultra-fine sandpaper. Use a metal primer to prime any bare metal, then apply several light coats of your finish coat allowing ample time between coats. Check the label for specific times between coats.

Depending on the material the hood is made of guides you in the paint to use. If its metal then a good cleaning with degreasent is required . The surface should be well rubbed down to form a key and then enamel undercoat (white ) is put on, rubbed with abrasive to key again when dry and then 2 good coats of enamel top coat. You can use either matt of gloss - make sure the room is well ventilated as enamel paint has a kick to it. If wood then the same process but use wood undercoat and use a heat resistant white gloss

Talk to the people at the paint store for better advise but choose a reducer that matches your paint and temperature range and I go with a 2 to 1 reducer to paint ratio using a 50psi regulator, that works well enough for me.
