Buy a high-gloss enamel spray paint and use it on your pots. Be sure to seal the inside so moisture doesn't seep through.

You can purchase high gloss spray paint. RustOleum or Krylon should do the job.
Hi gloss spray paint is a good start but after that a high gloss sealant will not only protect your work but make it nice and shiny too!
Rustoleum has high gloss paint or Krylon too just look in the paint section at Home Depot, Walmart, etc.
If youโre painting terracotta pots for outdoor use, then using a clay pot sealer before painting them will help the paint last longer.
Seal with a high gloss
Hello. After sealing priming your terra-cotta I would consider using acrylic UltraCover by Rustoleum. It is an extra glossy enamel paint that comes in multiple colors it can be found in pints and quarts. The depth of the intensity of the color and the gloss shine is fabulous.
I have used it on both indoor and outdoor projects.
Hi,

Spray paint them that will give them a high gloss use semi gloss finish
Gloss oil based paint, like Tremclad
Start with a high gloss paint and then seal with a high gloss product. Spray for both works well.
