cargo trailer prep

[raider]

Have customer who wants to wrap their small cargo trailer instead of repaint. Paint is white and quality is not the best so I've searched for some prep advice with no luck. Bottom has road grime that alcohol won't touch. What do you use to clean/prep these trailers? Thanks!

if its to the point where it needs to be repainted, wrapping it is gonna look like ****

I love customers that think wrapping instead of painting will work. Had one bring a car primed up and full of bondo and ask if I could wrap it. Lol. Told him after it's painted and cured. Don't bother with this,,,,, it will be a nightmare and you will loose.

Actually, they are wanting to cover ghosting from prior graphics.

Hate to whine, especially with such quick responses, but no one has chimed in how they prep these trailers.

your going to have to get a DE-greaser and get all the grime off

or depending on the "toughness" of the grime acetone or xylene Be warned these can damage the paint!

Thanks. We were thinking acetone. Not thinking about a degreaser. Will try that first to be safe. BTW, you happen to be in the insurance biz?
