Trailer paint

Removed the fenders to adjust the height.
Got about 2" between the axle and frame yet had 6 1/2" betweet the tire and fender.
While doing this figured might as well paint them.

Daddy has been useing spray Hammered Rustoleum on gloss black places where he has been fixing stuff on the bass (bream) boat project, well I thought it would be great if they made it to look galvanized and in brushon.
After starting this project, come to find out, THEY DO.

This might be a good touchup paint also.

I am also going to under coat the fenders after I get the tires off for the winter.

Fenders are a little rusty but strong, I want to last as long as I can!

I used that on a few garden tools to test it's toughness. Then I painted my Motorcycle, the outdrive of my I/O, and my trailer rims It's pretty good paint. I've only used the spray tho'.

Did install and lower the fenders to about what they needed to be.

This is the height they were.
