Spidra,

The best sealant for terra cotta is waterproofing concrete primer & paint, both inside and out (or just inside the pot). I am not sure of the compatability with the other paints you are planning on using. Some paints, like latex and oil base with not stick to each other. Usually water base will stick to water base & oil base to oil (but not always). I would suggest you try a small shard sample first.
