Has anybody used it to repair cracked pots or fill a hole on some teracotta pot. How can you make it more pliable as it is rather stiff? Any alternative you may suggest? Has to be teracotta sort of colour. Thanks.

Tile grout might be a better option.

Add in paint from a 99p tester pot to get a colour match.

Mix in dust from a broken piece of a similar colour to the unset epoxy?

You can try heating it if you have the type of epoxy that requires mixing two parts. I’d not exceed 15 seconds in a microwave but then would you want to heat that in your microwave where you’ll put food one day?

Another option would be to heat it in a pot of water before dispensing it and mixing it.

Thanks everyone, will give it all a consideration as can't mess it up and need it to work first time when I apply it.

Milliput is a two part epoxy filler. That comes in terracotta colour I believe. Once mixed, it has similar working properties to clay.

"Milliput "

Yes that is the one but quite difficult to spread as I wish. Like you would do with grout or cement but need it to be waterproof and though grout is water resistant is not totally waterproof. Epoxy grout apparently is waterproof but mot sure if you can add anything to make it teraccota colour as don't want to paint it over. Stilp thinking
