Can these be used to paint rocks to be left out in a garden? I assume you would need to put a sealer over it so the paint doesnt wash off with rain?

Yes, in fact this is why I got these paints abs have used them w/ success! I did follow up w/ clear Valspar spray paint but before that, the newly paint rocks did fine it the rain.

I don't see any problem if the wood is first sealed with poly. I used mine on a headstock of a guitar which I sealed with Tru-oil. You just need a sealer to prevent the moisture from soaking into the wood. As far as removable, well these are just like any other water decal. Once it's set then it's stuck and will have to be scraped or sanded off. I did find I had better results by not over soaking them. Just soak then enough where it first becomes loose from the backing paper

I used a paint brush to cover uneven flagstone and it worked well. Be sure to blot any "pools" of sealer, as pools dry darker.

yes, with acrylics. Then I Spray them with Acrylic finish. Then got them wet and put in dryer. They cam out great. The paint will leak through so put a piece of parchment paper between front and back. Good Luck.

Hi. I plan on using them in a "pondless" water feature. The grates will be placed over a water basin that holds the pump. River rocks will cover the grates. The water will flow into and onto the rocks, seemingly disappearing into the ground but will actually fall through the rocks/grates into the water basin, then be recirculated to the top of the stream/waterfall. Thus, there is no standing water, or pond. I hope that helps. :)

The anti-metal ones MUST be used on any metalic surface; otherwise, they just don't seem to work. The adhesive is pretty stout, so I'm guessing they could survive outdoors, but I'd put them in a protected location if possible.

Yes you can use them outside for holding plants. They are powder coated very good so even if exposed to rain it will hold up.

I am not sure because I did not do that. I don't see any reason why you could not. They lock well and you would have to put in your dirt on the bottom one first I think. Not sure how to seal the inbetween when it rained though. There is green siding boards with poles that do though and I liked them better. These were nice but not big enough for me.

I've written on glass with them. Rocks shouldn't be a problem. If the rocks are real smooth like glass, the ink will rub off or smear easily. Also... in direct sunlight it's difficult to see the ink with a UV light (required). So you would need to use the light in dim evening light or after dark. The UV lights work best indoors or after dark. Good luck, and have fun.

If you tried to paint these planters I seriously doubt whether the paint would stick to them. They are made out of kind of a molded synthetic material that I do not think is meant to be painted. That is part of the beauty of the planter -- low maintenance and durable.

Above paint? I'm not sure. Altho I sealed up my chimney and red paver patio with it, seemed to the trick. Will know more come spring �. It does defiantly give the stone a darker more complex look overall. So far satisfied.

I would think you could use water with no problem. Paint is a very poor product in it though. It just can't seem to work very well.

I used it to seal my basement cement walls behind the insulation and sheet rock. After it dries I can see no reason why you would not be able to paint over it. I applied 2 coats and it works great.

YES, it is amazing on rocks! It brings out the natural colors in rocks which is what attracted me to this particular spray paint! However, it cannot be used in an aquarium environment due to toxic outgases from the paint. However, I have been using it strictly for achieving the beauty of the natural rock formation.

I didn't use it for outdoors. For outdoors I prefer Patio Paint. I really recommend "Patio Paint" for outdoors or Martha Stewart paints.

It can be used for outdoor projects if you use a clear varnish protective coating. My husband makes rain gauges and birdhouses that hold up well, if using a clear varnish coating.

As a matter of fact, I used them last night. I saved 2 16 oz. glass pickle jars with metal lids and filled them with sand. After they burn out put the lid back on and you can leave them out side and they won't fill with rain. This worked great. Last year I just filled a plant pot with soil and would just stick them in it but the wind would keep blowing them over.
