Ive got a trailer, with a 20 ft deck, and a 3 ft storage cabinet up front with a tire carrier, and then the tongue length, probably about 26ft long total, dual axle, dove tail.
Its all metal, the deck is diamond plate that has been painted twice since it was built about 5-6 yrs ago.
Im needing to sand the whole thing down to knock off any little rust and paint that is chipping off. My buddy used it as his race car trailer, and painted a few #'s on the backside of the storage, and some devils holding a checkered flag on the doors... He used like canvas paint, and I need to take a grinder to get the paint off of those.
After that Im painting it, it will be mostly dark grey, with a little black on the side rails and whatnot.
What paint should I use, I planned on using rustoleum, thinning it out a little with some thinner, and rolling / brushing it on.. but is there a better paint that will hold up to the abuse of sitting outdoors, and getting used alot?
Im updating it with all LED' tailights, and safety reflective tape on a few parts.
Thanks
