New member Artist looking for advice on tiles forum ;)

[Elwira]

Hi, I`m a new member😉 my art project research bring me to his forum. I need advice about tiles.....
So I wanted to make small projects on ceramic tiles for coasters purpose using my acrylic paints and inks . Problem showed up when I tried to find good product which can seal them. I tried Ultra Cast resin which supposed to hold 95 C. After leaving hot cup on it it left the marks in resin;/ .

I would like to buy resin alternative ? I need something checked that won`t ruin more of my art pieces;/ Could someone recommend me product for coating tails:
-permanent, water resistant
- Will be UV resistant
- Crystal clear gloos
- heat resistant- you can leave on it hot cup
-good scratch resistant
- if possible low odour

Project covered in resin:


damaged coaster- cup marks:


tile just with inks ready to coat with.....?.Help me to find what i should use please😉

Have you tried actually glazing them? Find a local ceramic artist and ask them to glaze for you? Not sure how your paints and inks will hold up, but clear glaze is the best option.

You mean firing them in a kiln ? Your into whole new territory with that.

My daughter uses this for clay craft and rates it highly.
Cheap enough and worth a try?

You can find product like ceramic acrylic clear sprays or enamels but so far I bought few and they don`t work for hot cups- leaving marks and cup stick to surface. I was hoping maybe someone can recommend something more professional from industrial range.
