if safe to put back the porcelaine to the oven for only retouching with only those retouching wet areas ?

In my opinion there is no problem putting the porcelaine back in the oven after touch-ups. Just put the object in a cold oven and set temp and timer as usual. I let my paint sit for 24 hours before baking.

No. It's unglazed pottery. The dishwasher would ruin it. But it doesn't need washing anyway. With time and use, the interior darkens like a traditional brick oven. Just wipe or gently scrape any crumbs out, after it's cooled and you're good to go again.

The edge is not enameled. I have 4 Le Creuset enamel cast iron Dutch ovens that I use weekly. I purchased my first one about 10 years ago. I have never had any trouble with rust. I don't put them in the dishwasher; I handwash and let them air dry. I have occasionally left them filled with soapy water for 24 hrs or so...not because they needed to soak that long but because I was lazy...and they never formed rust. They were not fully submersed in water, just filled with water. I don't recommend doing this, but I would think if rust was going to form, it would have in such instances.

I bought the paint to use on a plastic model car. I haven't tried it on ceramics. But here is the Testors website. http://www.testors.com/pages/help-and-support/faqs/general-questions/ General Questions: 4. Can you bake the enamel or acrylic paint? "We do not recommend that the enamel paints be placed in any oven or kiln at any temperatures, due to performance and safety issues. Enamels are considered Flammable/Volatile materials and do have a flash point. We also do not recommend the baking of the Acrylics, which are certified non-toxic, however they were never designed with the idea of baking in mind and we cannot be held responsible for the outcome."

The interior enamel will get scratched. It should only be used on a cast iron finish IMHO.

I would say not. I recently used pan and a large crack in the Ceramic coating appeared. It has been frustrating and of no avail trying to contact Amazon about this failure. Maybe with this answer customer service will respond. Again, I personally would NOY use this pan in an oven. Good luck, Beverly.

I have a large array of cast iron cookware that I've been using for many years. Direct flame doesn't appear to affect the the 'seasoned' surface in any way. Also, I've found warnings such as 'don't leave it to soak in water' and 'dry it immediately after washing' to be a myth. I soak mine (usually because I can't be bothered to wash it up at the time) and when I do wash them I allow them to air dry. A properly seaoned pan will not let water penetrate to the iron and therefore no rusting will occur. What is most important, is to ensure that the pans are always seasoned correctly. It's easy to see when they need re-seasoning, they lose their shine. To re-season, I rub mine with canola oil using paper kitchen toweling, then bake in the oven for 2 hours at 500f. They come out with a solid black shine that lasts for months. Hope this helps.

I wouldn't. You can use a cardboard cake board covered in foil or a platter. Hot items would ruin the finish, as well as acidic ones.

I have LeCrueset cookware but have not had a requirement to find a cleaner for it. That said I cannot see how it could hurt the enamel finish. If you have burnt the base of your cookware I would try bicarbonate of soda dissolved in hot water or oven cleaner. Cook Top Clean is non abrasive for all intensive purpose. Now!; I have just tried it out on removing a few stains on the outside of the lid and it worked without scratching and used it on stains on the inside and it worked a bit with hard rubbing. (These are stains after many years of use, not burnt on food particles). However I usually remove this type of stain by using a strong solution of bleach and hot water which is a lot easier than rubbing!

Oh, yes. I usually run water over them til they're wet and then attach them to the pan. If that isn't done, I'd assume they would just char in the oven.

Never have had any problem. It has been in my oven for a couple of years. I use high temps and low temps. I do not use my oven on "self cleaning". The very hi heat will burn out the "boards" on a touch type oven. I remove the liner and use oven cleaner. I love it.

Yes, just avoid the glass top ovens with this guy. Be sure you clean it well before storing it and don't let it sit in water for too long or it will rust.

I have been able to use bare hands on all of the pieces, even after long periods on the stove top. They get hot, but not uncomfortably so. This, of course, does not apply when the pieces are used in the oven.

**********I don't recommend doing this because it's probably a fire hazard.********** Yes, read my review. In summary I used olive oil because that's all I had lying around and two years later it's still working as a beauty! I think I poured some olive oil through the hole at the top then on another occasion rub olive oil over paper and fed it through the machine. Definitely not what you're supposed to do but it worked a treat. **********I don't recommend doing this because it's probably a fire hazard.**********

Yes. But, I would soap the bottom of the cook ware, using a bar of soap, to prevent any scorching. I like to keep my cook ware in tip top shape to last a long time.
