DIY Inquiry
Feb. 4th, 2008 11:23 pmI have a lovely ceramic trickling water fountain, with multiple levels and zen rocks and live bamboo and all that. Lovely, that is, except for one fatal flaw: it doesn't seem to be waterproof. Either that or it's suffering from invisible condensation, but considering how dry it's been I'm betting it's just plain leaky.
Does anyone have any idea for making it waterproof without removing the paint? I'm hoping for some sort of clear coat that will keep the water in the bowl. If that's just not possible, then I'd love suggestions for a waterproof ceramic paint, preferably in jade green (and ideas for getting off the old stuff if there's a reason sandpaper won't do it - I've not worked with ceramic).
