    Trailer Detail

    So as many of you saw I have a horse.
    And of course I got a trailer. I washed it the day it was delivered

    I definitely want to get a good product on it.
    Any recommendations for a horse trailer or do I go with one of my car favs?

    No it’s steel.
    Painted steel.
    Not sure if it’s a 1 or 2 stage paint.

    If it's in decent shape, I would just wash and slap on one of your car fav's.

    I’d pick something like Griot’s 3-in-1 Ceramic Wax and reapply every 4-6 months. Or CanCoat for a little longer protection. Either of those would be quick with solid protection. But as the others said, if you have a paint favorite that isn’t too expensive, use it. Then again, since it’s new, you may want to step up to Kamikaze Zipzang if you really like the trailer. Lol!

    Edit - And I’d be remiss to not mention two solid ones that work well in more of a wax form in Finish Kare 1000P High-Temp Wax and Collinite 845.

    While I don’t have experience with taking care of trailers, FK1000 was the first thing I thought of just knowing the conditions that most trailers get put through - I’d worry about ceramic coating something that size then finding out the side got hammered with sprinklers overnight somewhere and now you’ve got acres of water spots to fight…
