Recommendations for Trailer Paint please

[grandmaweloveyou]

and how many tins (1L) roughly do you think / know it takes to paint a trailer (Rice 2 horse)

I have had a link sent to me for polyurethane coach enamel (thank you) and would be keen to see other suggestions.

Thanks.

You'll need close to bang on 1l for two coats on a double trailer - OH and I just did mine last weekend.

Wow is that all? I was looking at getting a 20L pot!!

What did you use? Is the polyurethane stuff the best? (goes on floors so hardwearing)

Thanks

Surely not? I can't imagine 1 litre doing 2 coats. Ps can I have the link for the paint too? My rice needs a facelift!

I used teamac marine paint with a mini roller on my old trailer and it was fab! Comes in loads of colours as well

20 litres?! It'd be six feet wider in paint

I'm not much use on the exact paint as it's a Bahill we've just done so won't be the same. 'Spose thinking about it, you'll have the roof to do but seriously, we got a 2.5l tin, did two full coats and touch ups the next day, and there's maximum 1.5l left, if that helps.
