Is it safe to cover the bottom of a bird bath with Flex Seal spray rubber seal?
Is it safe for the birds to drink?

Birds have nostrils so they can smell stuff. That seal will be offing odors for quite awhile into the water like gasoline. or ammonia. or some other chemical that is not natural.

They might not like the smell of it because it is probably petroleum based, and it might be too slippery.
I would suggest a water-based spray paint with a concrete texture to it if you need to seal it. Then wash it thoroughly. That gives a grip to the surface and does not smell.

The rubber coatings are safe, but you will have to get the bird bath real clean. They are swimming pool paints.
