The stuff I got in the picture was from home depot but I think I have gotten stuff from auto zone begot that was a rust reformer primer. And yes you always want to primer metal and fillers (bondo, glass, etc)before paint. That is unless your using paint that can be applied straight to bare metal or your painting over existing paint. In the case of painting over existing paint just sand the paint that's there and spray over it. Not saying that's the right way but I have done it that way and not had bad results. And before you paint its better to wash it down, auto shops use soap and water with some chemical but I usually use a few rags and paint thinner and wipe everything down. That way I can clean everything up and give it a once over begot painting.

X3 on keeping it low. Beautiful boat man. If anything id make some teak steps that run from the back seat to the back of the boat. That way its easier climbing from the back of the boat and there would be some storage area that's out of the way.

The discs or a wire wheel depending on how easy it is to get to. Then Id just spray the hell out of it with the rust reformer.

I sanded most of the trailer with a few 80 grit sanding discs w/ a 4 1/2" angle grinder. I used a cupped wire wheel to get inside the c channel and around the welds. I used rustoleum reformer in a rattle can and then some rustoleum sealer and rust preventer. Still undecided on just spraying the trailer with rustoleum or using the appliance epoxy.

Im using sanding discs and a 4 1/2 angle grinder and if I see something I don't like, like pitting from old rust, new rust or something else I hit it with the wire wheel. On the inside of the c channel im using a wire wheel that's shaped like a cup. Works perfect. Ill snap some pics when I get home.

Well here's my project thread, gonna be a slow build and keeping it on a budget. Trying to keep it under 1200 not including the cost of interior and so far I think i might make it. I picked up a unknown hull that was fully rigged for next to nothin and stripped it of everything useful. Then i ended up with this challenger hull with jet which is in much better shape in exchange for the jacuzzi jet I had no use for. So i cut up the old trailer because it was rotted to hell and saved one of the axles and tongue because they were still good just in case I wanted to put surge brakes on the next trailer. So I scrapped the old trailer and picked up a tandem trailer this last weekend and the money from the scrap damn near paid for the trailer. So im gonna spend the next 2 weeks cleaning up the new trailer before I bring the hull and parts from my uncles where im storing them. My hoa is kinda picky about boats not to mention cutting one up and putting one together in my drive way.

So im gonna be painting this thing and im on a budget so its most likely gonna be rattle canned. Would it be better if I used the epoxy paint from rustoleium or just the regular ol black from them? I have already sanded the entire trailer and used the wire wheel on the rusty spots and primered it with that rust inhibitor converter stuff.

Go up a few sizes on the jetting, I had the same issue. come to find out some bikes sold on the west coast were down jetted from the factory. My Bike came with a 130 I believe and it was suppose to have a 140 range. Now its got a 164, I pulled the spark arrester an no more red and the low end pulls harder. Jets are only a few bucks and it only takes 10 mins to change.

I Donno, never really thought bout it. Kinda wanted to keep it simple and moving the tank up front I would have to cut a hole and fill the two in the back. But it looks like my spun tanks wont fit
