Painting a Fiberglass Trailer Experiences
This is not a question, just a comment about a recent experience.
I have a fiberglass trailer that needed a repainting. After asking around some trailer manufacturers the general conscensus was to use a two part epoxy paint. I ended up using Benjamin Moore M36/M37 gloss white tintable epoxy paint. It costs about $100 for one gallon of part A and one gallon of part B. Two gallons are said to cover 880 sq ft. It dries to 2mils so it is significant protection. I started with a brush but it is so thick that I had to switch to a roller for the broad flat surfaces. Wear gloves and a hat. I got some in my hair and it may not go away until I get my next hair cut. As it is tintable you can go with something other than plain white for no extra charge. All in all the trailer looks great and I recommend this solution. http://www.benjaminmoore.com/tds/1033/TDSM36M37.pdf - John |
