Default trailer painting

Any ideas on what it cost to paint a 53 ft trailer? Nothing special just white basically a simple makeover like it came when new.

I've seen quotes in the $3000 - $4000 range.

I know it costs around 4K for a HHG trailer, so I'd assume a lil less for a 53ft box.

I just got finished painting the frame on my 48' RGN. 1 gallon of rust paint and 4 hours of my time. That's for 1 coat. Boy do I need a shower.

You may want to check with some local body shops in your area. They may be willing to cut you a deal. I checked to have my flat bed sandblasted and painted about a year ago. I believe it was going to cost about $2-3,000. I would expect it to cost about the same or perhaps a little more for a van. Of course, you could get a paint roller and paint and do it yourself for a couple of hundred dollars. :thumbsup:
