If you heat the pot and then spray on the glaze you will have good results, unless the expansion/contraction rate is considerably different than what your glaze was formulated for. I use a blow drier in the glazing area all the time, very useful for getting layers of glaze to dry. Also an air brush or air gun for application, along with a mask and spray booth.

Heating the pot just lets the glaze begin to dry and stick when it hits. If you brush it on, the glaze won't stick nearly as easily.
