[QUOTE="Nussy, post: 117593, member: 2148"] Well the heater went out in the garage and won't be fixed until tomorrow so I decided to start working on the trailer. Spent about 5-6 hours with a grinder and a wire wheel trying to remove all the paint and rust. For those of you looking to take on this project my only advice is to get an aggressive wound strand cup brush and wound strand wheel. It will save you a lot of time from the single strand brushes. The wheel seemed to work better but you need to cup brush to get into some tight areas. [ATTACH type="full" alt="Trailer Sanded.JPG"]10018._xfImport[/ATTACH] The plan for today is to get everything sanded. Hopefully including the boat. That way I can get all the dust out and focus on painting once I get heat back tomorrow. It's only supposed to be 15 degrees today so hopefully the garage will stay tolerable. The goal is to get the trailer primed and painted by the end of the weekend. Using Rustoleum Clean Metal Primer and Rustoleum Paint. If things go well I might even get the etching primer and a coat a regular primer on the boat. [/QUOTE]
