What should be the general cost for having a 24-25ft steel trailer painted? Assuming trailer is in good condition but just need to change the color to black or purple using Dupont paint.

I paid a grand for my 26 ft trailor base/ clear coat black over black.

Was hoping it wouldn't be that much but knew it probably would be.

depends on how much body work Ie rust I would think.

Maaco in Richmond wanted over $400 to paint my small trailer, about the size of a jon-boat. I bought my own gear and painted it myself.

I do highly recommend:

Steve Knowles the boat guru, and Joe Corbin the owner are both boaters and OSO members. They are a full auto and boat body shop and do fantastic work.

it's all in the prep work. Even if you just get naaco to spray it. Tell them what you want too . Under side of rails , etc , or they will do it the cheapest way they want.

Thanks for the local contact. I'll be giving them a call.
