I had built two years back, but went with a store bought, this time round.

I was one of the riders that pioneered trailering,

I even made my 1st hitch

 

At least you didnt say you invented the internet too!! :duck::rotfl::rotfl:

 

Nice looking trailer by the way....I like the hammered paint on it. Matches the 99 well. Maybe it will give me some inspiration to finally put together my H/F kit thats been in the garage for about a year.

Jeff,

Take your time and do your research, its not that hard !

I used the Rustoleum that dries in 24 hrs it was a dollar more a can but it chips real easy.

Save a buck and use the stuff that says completely cures in 48 hrs and you might get better durability.

Did you do any sanding or use a primer before you painted it?

Jeff,

I did all the prep work, it was just a very hard surface kind of like ceramic or some thing, very brittle like glass. I went to school for autobody repair and painted for a living for close to 10 years. I just wasn't happy with the product, maybe the 48 hour cure has a different

makeup. just the slightest touch and it chips.
