Gallon of paint and a brush?Does it need to be stripped to bare metal or is this just a touch up job. If it's just touch up then grab a can of spray paint. If it's a total repaint then you're looking at sanding, maybe media blasting then primer and top coat. If you have access to an air compressor and a spray gun you could probably do it fairly inexpensively. If not look for somebody who does it on the side that might do it inexpensively. If you end up at a body shop it's probably going to cost more than it's worth.
Painting a trailer is pretty labor intensive. The cost of paint is pretty small compared to the work.
If you have integrity, nothing else matters. If you don't have integrity,
nothing else matters.
Trailer prep then Por 15.

Labor intensive, plus a lot of wasted paint. Stripping it, Powder coat or paint——- around here it would be $2000. And you are doing the dis-assemble and re-assembly.
Might be more now, price of paint seems to go up every month
