    Best paint for trailer.

    I am about to repaint my stratos trailer and was wondering what kind of paint to use. I have thought about farm and tractor paint. Saw someone had used the brush on kind, does it cover well and look as good as if it were sprayed on?

    I re-painted my Skeeter trailer before I put it away for the winter. I used Rustoleum Hammered Metal (Green to match my Skeeter). I bought a couple quarts (only used one) and rolled the paint onto the trailer using a FOAM roller. Went on super easy and looks awesome. No streaks, no bubbles etc, looks like a new trailer. I posted some pics, check out the link:

    Wow that looks great. Did you have to cut the paint with thinner or just roll it on right out of the can?
