Painting parts of trailer what paint to use ?

[LoweStinger]

Hey guys, I want to paint the under parts of my boat trailer because of light rust here and there on the trusses. What paint is best to use ? I will be brushing it on as to not get over spray all over the boat, The trailer is gloss black.

Thanks

Thanks for the response, I see they have a few different kids. Would the Professional one be better or just get the regular stuff ? Thanks.

Rustoleum oil based paint with a hardener added. Tractor Supply and Lowes/Home Depot sells it.

What kind of Hardener.?

Find the color you want in IMPLEMENT paint. That is the very good stuff od at most tractor supply places.

Farm implement paint if you can find it in gloss black.

You can get the brush anywhere. I was not looking for a great finish just wanted to make sure I covered all parts.

If the rust is really bad, clean and use this as a prep, also sold by Rust-Oleum

Brush the area then use a (dry) 3/16" white roller cover to remove the brush streaks. It will come out like you sprayed it.
