I am too old to do a lot of sanding etc but was hoping there is something out there that will cover the birdbath in a step or two.
Thank you for your help.

Use a wire brush and brush the areas and clean them out. You didn't mention if it is an concrete birdbath so I am assuming it is. Get some concrete paint from you home improvement store and then paint. They can help you with the type of paint you need
You can also use the Rustoleum spray paint that looks like stone. Gives a unique finish
Concrete paint that has a primer in it already...you'll get 6-7 years outdoors.
Just a lite brush to clear out any loose pieces. Have fun and I actually love the rustoleum look and I used it on a set of planters for that concrete look without the weight Good luck Martha
Citristrip works on concrete as well , to strip away chipping paint . That should make repainting it so much easier .
I'm interested in doing this with my birdbath, too. Is any of this harmful to the birds, does anyone know?
