What paint is safe to use on a birdbath?
I have an old birdbath that used to belong to my mother. Most of the original paint has worn off. What can I do to make it look new again? Thank you!
I just painted mine on the outside and did not paint on the water bowl part. Instead I tried to do a mosaic tile (didn't come out great) and I just used all weather thinset.
Use a coating which is designed for swimming pools. If it's safe for humans then it's safe for tweety !
Both great ideas Ana and Scott, Thanks so much. The water bowl part gets nasty and ugly and slimy, what do you put in yours to keep it clean?
Ask a paint salesman.
Ask in the plant section about a cleaner.
