Trailer Paint

[GregsBlurpleX]

I just bought my harbor freight trailer and do not like the red that it is currently painted. What is the best paint to get to cover that up?

I used black on mine...looks great! Course not much of my frame is exposed though

Mine was purchased black and has silver sides the basic size was purfect. I went extreme and put a car top carrier on that no way i ever need that much gear. It pulled fine on my 4700 mile trip and 300 miles for Mardon. I came back from Mardon with my rear car tire a little low but the trailer was fine. I switch my trailer Tail lights off in the day time to save power and so people notice better when my brake lights come on. Jim

I have the same trailer . I painted it black with rustoleum spray cans. I assembled it and it wouldnt carry a ground so I ground and welded the seams. then i repainted the seams added a piece of aircraft aluminum cardboard stuff as a deck.I put on a swivel hitch and I extended the tongue to 52 inches so it would track good. you dont even know its there at speed you only notice it starting out and on a good hill, of coarse thats when Sandy loads it with everything but the kitchen sink( dont need one shortshifter has that in his):shock:

I used the black Hammerite paint on mine. Has some texture and looks good. Used it on my final too.
