    Painting A Trailer

    I'm fixing up an old Skeeter tandem trailer for my Gambler and have just about got everything finished up and welded. About how much paint does it take to spray one that is 23 feet long total ?

    That would depend on how many coats and are you painting top and bottom and sides. I would think about 3 quarts to a gallon for 2 coats. But I'm not a painter. When I redid my 2001, I had it sand blasted and then powder coated. By far the BEST way to go.

    Instead of paint, I sprayed bedliner on the last two trailers I've rebuilt.

    Have it sprayed with Bullet Liner - Lifetime warranty... Those of you who may not have heard of Bullet Liner yet, it's coming, and the gentlemen that created Line-X, he kicked it up a notch, perfected his formula and you now have Bullet Liner. I just had my truck bed done - wow! There's definitely a difference from Line-X.
