Hopefully Last Utility Trailer Question

TwinCreek · Jan 7, 2016

Thanks for all the responses on my utility trailer questions! Hopefully this will be my last question. What brand and kind of paint do you like for your utility trailer? I will be painting it black and it will be stored outside. Thanks for your responses!

Most likely it will get scratched, dented, rust so use cheap rustolum paint. You will most likely need to tough it up many times

Rustoleum seems to have changed the formula lately and it is better. It is not that UV protective .

If you're using rattle cans, I like the 2x Rustoleum at Home Depot. Semi gloss black covers well, easy to touch up.

The last time I painted my trailer I used Industrial Maintenance Enamel from Sherwin Williams with a hardener added. That was in 2006 and the paint is still in good condition. I am told though Sher-Kem enamel is even better. With any paint the glossier the paint the longer it will last.

What I used on my trailer

Its priced reasonable you can spray it are brush/roll it on. They have the thinners and hardeners that are comparable. I painted my tow truck with the Factory Packaged Colors deal 20 years ago it needs painting again it out lasted the factor paint job and a a $Imron$ job... BTW my Napa man told me it was made by Sherwin Williams true are not I dunno.

I'll second Sherwin Williams sprayed on. Forget the Rust-Oleum.
