I need to protect &amp; seal stone tile coasters. How does this hold up with frequent heat, condensation etc.. what you'd expect from hot/cold drinks?

I would try something more heavy duty. This is more for coating a surface that doesn't take a lot of wear and tare. Hope that helps.

I used a premixed thin set on the hydro barrier I applied to the concrete Hardyboard. It sticks very well. Here is one of a series of good links on how to do it. Note this guy does not recommend glueing tiles in a wet environment. While more work, concrete board last longer. It is very important to waterproof thoroughly. When I removed the old tile/wall board I found an ant "Garden of Eden" behind it. Very important to cut off their water.http://www.youtube.com/watch?annotation_id=annotation_457202&feature;=iv&src;_vid=xmzEKU4YLpk&v;=D1-v070N0WI

I did a 4,000 square foot stamped patio several months ago. 75% of it still looks great. In areas where my sprinklers hit it and it bakes in the CA sun, it has faded. I think any sealer will have this issue. I'd use this product again.

Hi Beth, I used this on my ceramic tile floors, granite kitchen counter tops "Cielo Blanco" and also on my bathroom counter tops" Bianco Antico" and they all came out wonderful. This sealer will leave a permanent protective coating which will last for a very long time. When dry this sealer will not enhance the sheen of you granite but will enhance its beauty and depth and will leave great protection against spills that if not protected would be able to soak in to the granite tending it to look dingy over time. Hope this helps!

It's a big, albeit thin, slab of marble so should be as heat resistant as any rock. :) Of course extended high heat with high humidity may discolor it and any acidic liquids left to drip on it will begin to pit it.

Very minimal insulation. I'd look at something different for hot drinks. I never tried hot drinks but it didnt keep cold ones very cold. It seems like nothing more than a big plastic container for liquids.

It is tempered glass so it should be pretty durable outside. You would want to avoid abrupt temp changes (IE setting a hot pan on a cold table or vise versa. I would also keep it out of direct sunlight as there is a history of even "patio" tables with glass tops shattering in direct sunlight. As for the chairs and table height... the table comes in two heights and so do the matching chairs. You need to counter height is shorter and bar height is taller.

There is no warning notes on the lable. I don't know what your purpose is but I don't think this is the type of product to use if you are sealing stone or somthing that will become hot. I wouldn't think it would hold up.

I wouldn't use the lid as a coaster because of moisture accumulation from the hot cup and the cup possible sliding off. You also need a place for the tea bag. I like to use the well in the lid for my tea bag then place the top, flat side down, over the cup to keep the tea it hot. Works well this way.

No, Tervis Tumblers do not sweat. I don't need coaster when we host Bridge. You can use them for hot or cold drinks. They are guaranteed for life. We have 12 tumblers and lids. They are great glasses!

If the deck is concrete, get a concrete patch, added atop some sealer. About $10 for both. I have not tested my Durham's against water, but it dries very hard and has extremely tight particle compression meaning it does not appear to dissolve when water is applied after dring. It would sure be better than nothing.

Yes, don't set anything wet or will sweat on the table. We use coasters normally, and a see through plastic mat for company. We love this table!

I made coasters with mine and I do put hot coffee/tea on it from time to time, no wear or tear on them yet and we've had them for almost two years.

While I don't believe it is specifically ground glass, it does seal very well. I have never experienced any evaporation occurimg, and even older scotches (not ideally suited for decanters) have not shown any over oxidization. The longest I've had alcohol sit undisturbed in the decanter is about 8 weeks, but no issues at all.

It seems to me that using these coasters would be best for hot drinks to protect the surface they are placed on.

Price quoted is PER tumbler. Roughly $11. They live up to "not leaving ring marks (condensation)" on tables. Originally ordered 3, then 2 more when found how well they kept ice & drink cold for long period of time. Good product. No need for coasters.
