Ok, we've done almost everything else, maybe we should paint this trailer
too.


So, knowing next to NOTHING about paint spraying and/or sand blasting....We
already
have an air compressor. I think it's a 5 gallon tank, has a regulator.

Would these sprayers work and what else would I need?

The compressor you have should work fine. May not be able to continuously
spray, may have to stop a minute for the pressure to build up. Other than a
spray gun, you need a respirator mask. The mask is $25. Ask at the paint
store what sprayer you need for the type paint. Siphon or pressure, some
guns are both. Go to a Dupont auto paint store for the info. They deal in
only automotive paints.

You will also need a high quality respirator and spare filter cans
specifically certified for spray painting, and for the type of paint
you are using. Also a good supply of clean up solvent, and a location
sheltered from wind and dust.

This also implies doing you're own prep which means sand blasting
equipment and supplies.

One of my neighbors just got his boat trailer painted by an auto body
shop at a very reasonable price (about $300 if memory is correct).
Find one that's not too busy and be willing to settle for something
less than perfection.

Do you have a Maaco near you? They will do a whole car for less than
$400 if it doesn't need too much prep.

Thanks all for the info & ideas
