I'm curious as well about this Liquid Quartz product. I'm specifically looking for something to fill the occasional pinhole in my wares. I'm unsure if the inside of pinholes are porous at all. The product states the surface must be at least partially porous for it to work. I was also thinking of just using clear epoxy? I have a few pieces that I love that just have a couple of pinholes and I have already refired them. There must be a compatibility issue or my bisque firing didn't entirely burn off stuff. I saw someone note that epoxy with its low viscosity just pops out of small holes so I was not sure if epoxy could work? I'm looking to fill a few tiny pinholes on bwols that I would intend to use as food serving dishes. Any thoughts folks?
