    Redoing my trialer

    I know I have this topic discussed before, but I can't find it. I just finished putting new carpet and wet sanding the boat. Now that my boat is finished and looking good on the water. Not so good when its on the trialer. Here is the question has anyone rolled the do it yourself bedliner system on there trailer.If so does it look the same as if it was sprayed on? How has it held up? I can get it sprayed on at my local body shop, but I don't have another trailer to put the boat on. Thought about renting a slip at the marina. Just don't like the idea of leaving the boat in the water while its being done. Any suggestion on what to do?

    Used Rustoleum satin black on mine - careful masking, 3in roller / brush. Worked just fine and easy to touch up...

    Just scroll down the resto page here to "Ranger write-off: Sport R72 rebuild" - there's a couple of pics on page 1 and page 4 + 5.

    bassdad,

    Did you sand the trailer before painting? I have thought about painting my trailer where there are numerous chips, but didn't know if I should sand it.

    By the way, just saw the thread of your restoration and well:

    Re: Redoing my trialer (slsmith93)

    I just reciently re-did my trailer..I took BassDad's advice actually. I wire wheeled mine for awhile and got all the rust and rough spots out. Then painted with rustoleum hammer paint. (helps hide imperfections and seal the rust) then i bought a can of the spray bedliner and sprayed the bunk board brackets and cross bracing to keep the chipping down on the paint. I think total i spent about 25 bucks paint and wire brush.

    pics and in this thread

    Nice job. I will check into that. Can't beat the price.
