Did anyone use on terra cotta pots? If so, results? I don't mind to do multiple coats if it works!

Yes and it did not work. The pots soaked it up and I even put multiple coats on it. It may have worked if I would have put a sealer on there first but I didn't.

In the corner of that picture you should have noticed the watermark that shows the photographer's name. You can find his words about how he took the picture with a flashlight and long exposure lens, not glow in the dark paint.

To be honest I never worried about blacking on any of my pots. The Solo still puts flame to pot so you get some blacking. I would recommend using soap to coat the pot or just be philosophical about it and rinse it off the best you can.

Yes. You could do that easily, in my opinion. However, just know that the size of the actual terra cotta holder (again...in my opinion), is perhaps too larger for a smaller pot. Personally, I use these in my large pots and aqua globes in my small pots.

What a good question. I love it for any type of aluminum or stainless steel. Makes old pots and pans look like new. On the back it shows applications as: stovetops, ovens, pots and pans, sinks, countertops (laminate, granite and corian), refrigerators, stainless steel appliances, silverware, copper and brass, bathtubs, bathroom tires, wood/laminate flooring, PVC patio furniture, BBQ grills and many more. While I've never used it on a ceramic sink, I would guess it would do a great job. The only thing you want to watch for is be sure to clean all the white residue off after you are finished...and that's not problem at all, easy wipe up. Hope this helps. What a good question.

The product behaves like water. Think painting the sidewalk when you were a kid. Any brush will do though a quality one should work noticeably better since it will hold more liquid during transfer from container to table. Cold won't bother it after application and drying. Follow application instructions. Element exposure is what it is made for including under ground. I'd be hesitant to use it on a potting table though. The material has residual stickiness and an odor that lingers for a few years. It may transfer to the bottom of pots. If you're concerned about termites or boring bees, I suggest treating with Boracare first, then top seal with the non-coppercoat version of woodlife. You'll have to re-treat in a number of years. No different than a wood deck. Good luck!

To the best of my knowledge, yes. Personally the terra cotta seemed to be thicker. Lasts longer

I wanted to add this: it is at depence on the amount of soil or water in your pots, or on where you carry these pots to and how but I just know 100%-guaranteed that if you pour a lot of water into these pots and then try to carry them/it after you will see water dripping down on the floor in your room, yes it does! okay, I am sorry I couldn't be any more helpful to you?, thank you and good luck with your growing project!, thanks.

Try using a primer and applying a thin line..I have had awesome results with this..last all night and doesnt run even in summer weather:)

I'm going to have a pot in the garage filled with some potting soil/dirt combo and add it to that over the winter. Don't know if it will work, but worth a shot! I have been using the "tea" for the indoor plants. I guess it will be a lot of trial and error!

Hi SLF, Using a gallon pressure sprayer,I covered a 20 x 9, a 20 x 5 and 4x3 awning with 2 light coats, with nothing left. it worked great, no leaks in my sunbrella awning. Hope this info helps!

I used two coats (1 can) on an outdoor potting bench, which is on the sunny side of my house in AZ (very hot and sunny all summer). So far it's done well, no problems. And it's not really rated for outdoor use. I can't really answer your question because I didn't do what you're asking about, but I hope this helps.

Use thin layers but you'll have to apply more coats. Making sure each one is completely dry before adding another

I have used ot overhead without any problems. Applying the first coat thin seems to work. Having used literally every product on tbe market I can say this is the best. Other non caustics are either not effective, dry ouf, or leave nasty residue amd clean up reauires mineral spirits and still doesnt clean up well. It is worth posing question to mfgr for application for a particular job. And, no I dont work for the company. Just a very satisfied user. Who used on paint, 100 yr old varnish, woid, metal and didnt have to use gloves or respirator for a change.

Hey! I've been fighting 10 acres of fireants at my outdoor concert facility. Yes it killed/moved the ants fairly well however treating 3-500 mounds several times a year would have been insanely expensive. The most effective cost efficient method has come down to poke a hole in the mound as deep as you can. Pour a dribble of gasoline into the hole. Kill the queen and the mound is done. Miss her and there's a new mound. Estimate 80/90% effective. Yeah yeah... Not eco correct but 5 gallons a year verses a couple hundred lbs. of approved poison... Seems better to me.

When I give the plant a good soaking (it's in a hanging basket) I just use the hose to fill up the glass globe and make sure there is water in the terra cotta wedge that goes into the plant dirt. Then I just turn the glass portion into the terra cotta piece quickly. It's the same concept of tilting a giant jug of water into a water cooler, just much easier. Hope this helps.

I used it on some interior detailed brass statues They look great, and I expect the Brass Lacquer will preserve there brilliance for many years. I have a Copula on top of my Garage with a copper roof an a copper flying Goose weather vein on top. I haven't properly lacquered the roof yet but I did bring in the Goose & cleaned it very good & applied 2 coats of the Lacquer in October 2013 an it still looks great. It was the first time I had even thought about a protective coating to show off the copper finish. It seems a shame people purchase cooper or brass decorative outside attachments for their homes, as myself, and feel it the norm to let them fade to Patina (oxidation). When you can coat it and keep the cooper or brass luster you bought it for. I can't wait to Lacquer the Cupola roof. Longevity is a question an abuse from the elements, but for as good as it looks, it seems worth putting on the Spring Clean-up list. Hope this helps. Ya can't loose by trying. A proper cleaning & prep is the key before applying.

I use my pampered chef stoneware scrapper on it. It's just a thick, flat piece of plastic designed to scrap food particles off. The discoloration on the terra cotta is considered "seasoning" and improves the cooking qualities. If you do want to wash it, do not use soap. Use hot water and a scrubby brush. Sean F is right- the terra cotta will absorb the soap and seep into your food.
