[QUOTE="EYDavis, post: 297702, member: 10661"] Update with pics...of trailer. wire brush, wire drill bit sanded, then Rustoleum Rust Restorer'd. I think I'm going to prime it anyway. I'm in full blown info overload with boat, though. My head is swimming with 37 different ways to fix leaks, reinforce rivets, durafix, etc. Now I'm thinking fast-track, get it troller/farm pond worthy and functional, then sort out mods as the spring goes on. I'm about to just JB anything I see, then etch prime what I've stripped, then follow with hammered finish rustoleum in multiple coats inside and out (I know, each coat has to cure a while). The original goal was to strip to aluminum all over, replace rivets the right way, transom if necessary, straighten dents, then airboat-coat the bottom. I'm thinking that may be a little ambitious for my first project. I'm bank fishing again this weekend...gotta get out there, man. If anybody has any safe but-not-so shortcutty ideas as to how to get this thing going...I'm game. I guess I've got to paint the trailer. It might be a good chance for me to try out the hammered finish rustoleum.... [/QUOTE]
