[QUOTE="Hustler16, post: 410190, member: 20692"] I used Sherwin-Williams procryl and pro industrial DTM acrylic. Basically I use the 7 inch grinder until I burned the motor up, and then I switched to a 4-inch angle grinder, which ended up being faster and better anyway. I grinder on it until mist of the paint was off of the trailer not so thoroughly that it was all exposed otherwise I would have sandblasted it. I I hit it so that it was good enough to get all the surface rust off, anything that was left after I passed over it, I figured was stuck well enough to where it wasn't going anywhere I just wanted to make sure I got all of the rust off. After that with a 4 inch roller I I rolled the trailer with the primer and 2 coated it with the DTM. The boat I used a wire wheel on the end of a drill and just hit specific spots and I took a sanding pad and just kind of stuffed up everywhere else and then washed it with acetone, I sprayed it with the primer and 2 coated it with the DTM acrylic, which was semi gloss. Semi gloss or gloss will always clean better than flat, and if prepped right looks just as good. I didn't box in the front seat. so rather than mess with a seat that flips for storage I left the front open to put stuff under the entire bench. Sent from my SPH-L720T using Tapatalk [/QUOTE]
