I have no idea, I'm just gonna wipe it down and let it dry then prime it.

Yes but like I said in my first post you can't get that where I live. They make stainless unistrut too. BTW, can only imagine what they want for that.

Not a problem, had them on top of our old trailer for 10 years and they were still there, still worked and were in good shape when we sold it.

Ya, something else you can't get up here.

Interesting, the Tremclad galvanized primer spray can says "opil based technology". You can buy water based but I don't need a gallon of it.

I'm using pre-galvanized unistrut to mount solar panels on our RV roof, I want to paint it white. I'm going to wipe it down with vinegar, after that do I use etching primer or Tremclad glavanized metal primer. I'm hoping the Tremclad primer and a coat or 2 of regular Temclad paint will work ...

Thanks, will keep that in mind about the new model. Right now I'm fine with it as is so until it really falls apart I'll make do. Not going to change the stator etc just to keep the trigger on. Thanks for your help. Glue it is... ;)

Thanks for the info and links. (y)(y) Will hafta look into this at some time in the future, in the meantime I'll just try some kinda glue like you said. TBH I got so used to it with the rubber band on there I kinda forgot about it but it musta broke and it's been replaced with a fresh one. ;)...

I have a lotta Milwaukee M18 tools, some that I've dropped off step ladders etc and never had a problem with anything breaking but my mid-torque 1/2" impact fell onto the gravel from our RV steps (about 24") and the trigger fell off. Since then I've had an elastic holding it in place but I'm...

You mentioned using these which would mount your lights on a 45* angle:| strips But in this pic (4th pic above) it looks like your light aren't on an angle: Did you decide not to use the angled pieces>

It's all good, have enough info now from all the posts above that I should be good. Appreciate the help and advice from everyone, thanks! (y) (y)

Ya I know, just wanna see if they'll fit before I buy 35ft of it

Looks good, thanks. (y) How'd you attach the angled pieces? Looks like the brackets for your jacks are different than mine (not that it makes a difference with what I wanna do)

Ya, I like the idea of the 45* angle pieces. I'll trim down a piece of alum angle the size of those brackets and see if it'll work.

Went back and had a look at your pics, so you didn't use the angled piece like oldbear and others used on their hoists? You have any close up shots of how you did it? Thx
