OK i was doing some work on the camper kitchen over the weekend and notices Little bits of rust coming through in various places on the trailer .. the paint job i reckon is a bit thin anyway so question .

Once Ive stabilised the rust with a converta [ what converta do u recommend] can i use a brush and roller to give the entire trailer a GOOD couple of coats on top of the origanal paint ?

Its nothing major but i wouldn't mind putting on some decent coats anyway .

charcol hammer tone is the colour.

Kill Rust is good and spraying the paint on will give you a much better finish, you can hire the gear to do the job if you dont have it already.

Maybe have a search as I remember somebody painting their camper having all sorts of problems trying to spray hammertone. In the end they used a roller for a better finish.

If your going to use hammertone just brush it on nice and thick

Have sprayed hammertone on a few times without a problem just use good preparation and a larger nozzle than normal :cheers:

Did my box trailer last week with Hammer tone. Just used a brush and put it on pretty thick. Happy with the result.
