Could this be used on a piece that will be outdoors?

I wouldn't think so. After drying you can peel mistakes off glass. I don't know about painting on clear acrylic.

I don't see why not. We love it. It is really transparent, but if you put it outdoors, the trick would be to keep it clean :)

I have only used it on my sculptures, that remain inside. But given the type of tape that it is, I would think it could come off easily outside due to the weather--rain and wind especially

No,it is not intended for outdoor use, however if it is placed where it will not be directly exposed to the elements, it should be fine. If you place it under a porch, gazebo, or similar protection, so that it isn't soaked by a rainfall, there should be no worries.

Not for outside use at all. But it is a very nice piece and am very happy with it.

If you would want to do that, you would want to weather-proof it. In other words, you should treat it just as you would any other piece of art, because it is wrapped around a frame. Over time if the weather is extreme the wood frame would degrade, as probably would the picture itself. So, unless you can weather-proof it, I would highly recommend not putting it in an outside environment.

I don't think it would be durable enough outdoors. It never really hardens, but tends to dry out and degrade in weather. Birds and squirrels may pick it off. I would use a pour-able clear epoxy or something similar. Check with a hardware or paint store.

I doubt that it is rated for outdoor use. Perhaps in a weather-protected enclosure you could.

You can, but I would prefer to keep it inside. It is painted and colorful. If you leave it outdoors, it will fade and won't look as nice. Maybe if you can paint over it with a clear seal coat, then it would probably do well outside!!

I suppose you could try to put it on the outside, but my guess is that the weather would take it down for you after a while. I put it on the inside, and it works just great.

You could use it outdoors, but it's mostly finished wood, so it wouldn't hold up to longterm use outside.

The other answers are pretty accurate. I don't believe this would serve you well outdoors unless it was well-sheltered from any moisture. The metal is not easily discernible, but is likely heavy tin with a bronze-like top finish. It's sturdy but not built for wear and tear. We also use it as an interior wall sconce and have no complaints whatsoever.

The infomercials showed it being used outdoors, however, I have never tried it myself. I would think so, the stuff is like cement when it hardens.

Maybe if you use a pretreatment like scotch guard I wouldn't let it get wet but if it's under a covered area then maybe and it might fade but it would look very vintage faded. But I don't think it's made for outdoors. But I think if your cautious could be used.

I love my sea stone hook and get lots of compliments on it. The stone would be fine outside, but I don't know if the wood it is mounted on would hold up in the weather. You might need to keep putting polyurethane on it to keep it sealed.

Yes it can. You may have to use an extra coat of paint for complete coverage though.

I imagine that it can; but I would believe that the wood finish would suffer in the elements and the metal parts may rust. I really is a nice looking product-- we have had several people wanting particulars about it in order to purchase one, so using it outdoors would alter that "nice looking" aspect; but from a serviceable point, it should function just as well outdoors and inside.
