Question 1

Without baking, the color will not be permanent?

Accepted Answer

The color is very permanent when baked. If un-baked it might become permanent after 15+ days. I know other baked on glass paint is like that. Permanent if baked or after 15+ days. I am under the impression that if you do not wash it off before an extended period of time it will probably become very difficult to remove. If you are determined enough you could scrape and scratch it off after being baked too.

Question 2

Can I use this on ceramic dishes that are already glazed and baked? would i need to bake it again ? Any pictures of what the color looks like?

Accepted Answer

Hello,I have used this on a ceramic repair, and while you don't have to bake it to have color stay on it, if you want that color to be permanent and not scratch or come off with cleaning, then you should bake it.  The color looks pretty much like it is on the bottle, but depending on how thinly you put it on (I airbrush it on, so with more layers it becomes a darker teal) or if you add their dilutant, you can make it lighter in tone.

Question 3

Does the Vitrea 160 completely cover with just one coat?  That is not thinning and using enough but not so much as it 'clumps'?

Accepted Answer

No. I used it for a Mercury finish. To attain a dark finish I used 3 coats on some and 2 coats on others. Be careful not to thin out to much, it will run and it will get clumpy if not thin out enough. 1 bottle resulted in 48 small Mercury look votives. It did not disappoint, will use it again.

Question 4

can this paint be used on globes for oil burning lanterns ? Just wondering if it was heat resistant enough to work

Accepted Answer

I believe it would be ok because once you bake the paint (around 300 degrees), as I did with the wine glasses I painted --it is resisted to any wear from a dishwasher which is water and heat...
