Hi there,
The best way to clean fiberglass is to use dry ice blasting..
This is often compared to sandblasting, but it's very different.
Dry ice blasting (or cryogenic cleaning) is a revolutionary cleaning method in which dry ice pellets replace traditional cleaning materials.
Dry ice blasting is quick & clean & generates no secondary waste material. The only waste to be disposed of is the material that is removed. The process is dry & non-conductive therefore is suitable for electronics and electric motors.
Also in the case of fibreglass it is perfect as it will not affect the underlying surface as it is a non abrasive technology.
Hope this helps?
You can indeed paint a rusty bird bath. You must first sand down the rust and then paint the bird bath.
If the paint was not designed for that use then it may be.
If you go to your local hardware store ex. Home Depot Kent's Agathe have spray paint cans available for painting plastic. One brand is Krylon paints. 2. If the bird bath is made of PVC, you will find that the special spray paint intended for vinyl car upholstery sticks very well to the plastic.
Go to a paint store and get a concrete sealer. This is a paint that will seal the concrete so you can paint without all you paint being absorbed into the concrete. Then paint it on and let it dry. Next paint the color you have decided to paint the bird bath.
Yes, you can.

Go to the automotive section of your local Wal-Mart and get some Bondo (fiberglass resin) for small repairs, or Bondo Glass (fiberglass threads and resin). You can adhere pieces like completing a puzzle with the plain resin or fill in large holes with the threads and resin. I also suggest fiberglass mat if you need to completely recreate a piece.
Painting metal is a multiple step process The material, such as a bird bath must first be cleaned. It must then be prepped to make it amenable to accepting paint. It can be chemically etched to achieve this. After one or more coats of paint as needed, it can be sealed for durability.

A common metric unit to measure a bird bath would be centimeters (cm) or meters (m). These units can help determine the dimensions and size of the bird bath accurately.
It would fairly difficult and kinda dangerous to make a bird bath heater yourself, as it would require heating elements and building electric switchs. But if you google bird bath heater you will come up with many shops that sell them.

A copper bird bath is a copper vessel that holds water for birds to bathe in. One advantage of a copper bird bath over an iron bird bath is that copper does not rust.
I have never personally seen a solar bird bath, but I am sure it looks similar to a regular bird bath.
If there is one bird bath and a male bird takes his bath there at night and the female bird takes her bath there in the morning then they will never meet. c:
I have never heard of a bird making a nest in a bird bath. I believe they only make nests in trees. I wouldn't worry about a bird making a nest in your bird bath. It's more used as a decoration.
