Thought I’d share my trailer project, document my progress and give all my garagejournal friends a place to give advice and suggestions.

I’ve had this trailer for about 8 years, it’s 20’ x 8’.
Most of the time it is parked next to my garage and I store a car in it. This past summer I started drag racing my Cobra and using the trailer a lot more. My dad and I slept in the trailer at the track a few nights and while it was dry, it was not comfortable or clean.
This project is to improve on that

I sprayed simple green on the floor and pressure washed it, then after a lot of dry time I sanded it and painted with alkyd porch and floor paint with anti slip added.

After painting the floor it highlighted how ugly the walls were.

3 coats of paint later...

I started with white Loop paint which is an affordable locally produced recycled paint, followed by a top coat of Beautytone exterior latex in a colour called Pearly White.

This brings me up to today.
