Need advice on re painting an old garden statue...?
We've just moved into a house and the previous owners left an old statue of a horse jockey.He had been spray painted metallic red and using paint stripper we've managed to see what the original paint colors were. What would be the best paints to use on him now? And should we seal it as well? If so can anyone recommend a good sealer? Any help would be appreciated!!
the statue is approximately 4 ft tall, he is holding a lamp that is wired for electricity. the original colors under the red paint aren't coming off with the stripper. What we really want to do is restore it as it seems quite old. I think it is concrete as it probably weighs 80-100 lbs.
With all due respect, I would hope some ethnic reference in that type of statue does not exist, such as ones that are created to look like Horse Tie up pieces at the curb.. Garden shops have so many decent pieces, why not do yourself a favor and get something else. Natural for a garden would probably be more suitable and pleasing anyway. Many now come in resin, and you don't state the substance of what you have.
If not, then certainly a high pressure wash would at least get rid of any Loose paint, as well as any environmental residue, IE: Mold etc.
With no offense NO LATEX!
If in fact it's a concrete molded piece then use what is so commonly used SPECIFIC to concrete. If it happens to be resin based, use an exterior epoxy.
I can't imagine why you'd need a sealer. It too would need occasional maintenance. The paints I suggest are designed for wear and modest abuse over the long term.
Admittedly, and again, with no offense, perhaps it is better than a Gnome?
At the very least, certainly you can "restore" the piece, and as a Jockey I suspect a red jacket, white pegged Jodphers, a black cap, gold adornments on a belt, etc. Brushed or sprayed the result might be satisfactory.
