Hello Dell. Begin by cleaning you garden statue with a bucket of warm water and a squirt of dish soap. Use a hard bristle brush. Allow it to dry at least 24 hours. You can paint your statue after it drys. Select an oil-based masonry primer as well as masonry paint. It will fill pores and even out the surface. Usually one coat of primer is enough to prepare it for painting. But if you will be painting over another color, use two coats of primer. Paint brush or sprayer, is up to you. Good luck with this project.
Dell, I don't know whether anyone else has asked you this, but if not, please give us a photo for these kinds of questions since they will really help us help you. If your statues have mildew or mold on them, use a Mr. Clean Magic Eraser to remove nearly all of it, followed by a rinse with a garden hose. If they have dents or the paint is peeling, sand them lightly with a fine grit sand paper or emery boards, followed by a spackle and another sanding. Follow up with a spray painting or touch up with a paint brush and coat of poly urethane or similar shiny protective coat.
