I have a steel triple axle trailer for my cat.It has brakes on all three axles and works great.I need it Sand blasted and repainted.What suggestions do you have about type of paint and what would be an approximate price for the job.I would have it stripped down and ready to go.I live in the Atlanta area.Does anybody know who may do it there?

Contact a heavy equiptment facility in your area and ask them where a good place is in your area to get what you want done. Most places sand blast and paint in the same shop for a reasonable price as long as you dont want custom work done. They dont do custom work. I run a bodyshop and in my town, they can do everything to a trailer for less than I can buy the paint and materials for a job of such. Good luck

Have you considered having it powder coated. The cost may be less than having it painted.

I painted mine last year. It's a dual axle around 32' long.I used ppg concept single stage over dp epoxy primer. Your materials alone will probably be close to a grand. It's very time consuming so if you took it to them prepped I would still say around $3k.

I would suggest you find a local distributor for DuPont's industrial line. They make an industrial-application Imron that's half the cost of the automotive stuff. Not quite as glossy but every bit as durable. The last time I painted a trailer, we did it outside and it came out great. You could probably rent a compressor and a gun and do it yourself.

I have a friend who had his trailer done in spray-on bedliner. It's unbelieveably tough and non-slip. Whole thing cost him under a grand from the local Rhino-linings dealer. It's repairable too- available in colors as well.

Too bad you are so far away. We would do it for you in any color and paint manufacture you'd like. I'd guess without seeing it around $3500-4000

what I did had a 30-0 triple axel trailer eagle light rust and was red.brought it to my shop dismantled everything sand blasted it.then i sent out to be color galvanized.what this process is the hot dip galvanize and grind some of the excess zinc and while its still warm the paint it either ppg sherwin willams etc.it dosent chip that easy. if it does the galvanize is still protecting it.trailer mfg won't use this due to the cost but its not bad.cost of blasting 300.00 cost of galvanizing .50 per # cost of paint ?so figure a thirty foot trailer is 3000#s 1800.00 plus the paint maybe total 2500.00 thats be conservative.i'll post pic if you want them.
