Painting terracotta pots is a fantastic way to spruce up your garden. Whether you’re thinking bright and cheerful colours or chic and understated hues, painted pots are a quick, easy and affordable way to customise your outdoor space.
But like all outdoor painting projects, terracotta pots require a specialised approach. As a highly porous material, terracotta must be properly sealed before painted. This is the best way to achieve a professional and long-lasting finish.
In this video, Laura Phillips walks you through how to prep and paint terracotta pots, so they last.
What you’ll need
• Finishing Coat
• Sugar Soap
• Paintbrush
• Suitable paint (Laura uses Dive In! and Raspberry Punch, both from the weatherproof Al Fresco range

Can I use this on my terracotta chiminea?

[@user-bs5mj9vt3h]

Why is it called finishing coat when I’ve only seen it used pre painting? When would you use it after painting please?

[@apoorvatripathi4322]

Instead of using some chemical coating, can we use something more natural? I'm just asking as I don't have the access to this coating that you're using
