Here are the answers to your questions.
I would not go too thin on the clay when covering glass as it could crack. I would keep it thicker than a #3 thickness on your pasta machine.
Great tip that when you cover glass or metal you want to keep it out of the cold because the movement of the glass can crack the clay I have had it happen many times as well.
You can seal pigments with water based Varathane,Future Floor Wax, PYM!! and there are others made especially for clay on the market too.
You can wash polymer clay by hand with soap and water so these are totally functional.
Liquid clay is not going to make the clay adhere any better to glass in my opinion its an un needed step.
