Default What is the best trailer paint????

I'm thinking of having mine repainted. What holds up best to flying rocks and salt water ?? Or should I just have it galvanized?

I would use a good epoxy primer and paint, I just used some Dupont Nason Epoxy primer and that stuff has awesome leveling properties, so if your trailer is rust pitted a few extra coats of this stuf and you will never know it was pitted

Have you considered having it powder coated. I plan on having mine done as soon as I get is sand blasted.

Look, I'm seeking recommendations, not sarcasm. If you were not being sarcastic, then I apologize all over myself and suggest you work on the tone of your postings.

I'd powder coat mine in a heartbeat if I could find someone with an oven big enough for it.
