It is time to repaint my aluminum cobra trailer. I'm not planning to spray it myself but does anyone have any thoughts on using an auto body shop to do the work? Could I do some of the prep myself? Any idea about the cost? Thanks Earlier this year we decided to re-paint our Cobra trailer which was showing it's age. On advice from a professional painter we used Zinsser Exterior Gloss. It cost us about £60 for paint, and about 3 days preparing and painting with a roller. Looks good to me, and since then another syndicate was impressed enough to do the same with their Cobra. A bit more cost for the stickers of course. Dave |

A bit mor cost for the stickers of course. Dave I painted my trailer earlier this year with Lechler 2 pack paint that is designed to be applied with a brush or roller. The results were very good and the paint was reasonably priced, around £70 if I remember correctly. As with any paint job though, the key factor is the preparation. |
