Great video.
I'm going to do the same thing for my car/4 wheeler/ stuff trailer.
I'm painting my step, wheel wells, and ramp extension the bed liner too
It doesn't chip like paint. You can also use grip tape on the steps.
My question to me, you, anyone is how to do the camper gear. I'm an electrician so I'm doing solar with batteries and generator or campground electric for backup.
Looking forward to more videos.
Be safe.
@@inspectorlee thanks! i’m not sure what you mean by the Camper gear. I sure appreciate you watching though.
I have a 8.5x20 I want to do this to. About what was the total cost for this project?
Hey @hughphillips67Mustang adding the clearcoat pretty much doubles the cost, if you decide to not put the clearcoat on it’s probably gonna be around $350-$400. But the clearcoat is about another three or $400. Overall, I love it. I have a new 36 foot trailer that I need to make a video about, but I did the same thing in. And I put clearcoat on it as well. I really think it’s the way to go, but you don’t have to do it. Thanks for watching!
This was the first video that I watched that the floor was painted. Didn't seem that anyone put down anything before they put down the epoxy . Thanks for the vid.
@@drewjones3601 my first trailer was already painted when I got it, it was painted with a primer topped paint. But I’ve done other trailer since then and I still think it’s a good idea to paint it first. Because you need to get the floor coated really well, and the paint is much cheaper than the epoxy that comes with, the kit. If you’re trying to get a good coat on the floor using epoxy, you’re going to spend a whole lot more money. Thanks for watching!
How did you like the experience at purchasing from Phil's? Looking at one of their trailers and heard good and bad.
I’ve bought many trailers from Phil’s, and so have several of my relatives and friends. I can’t say that anyone’s had bad experience ever. At one time it was the best pricing in Texas. You could pretty much find but occasionally I do find better deals. Right after the pandemic, when trailers went short supply, I bought one that I’d have to say the customer service experience wasn’t the greatest, but that was just one of many purchases we’ve made from them. Overall, I think they’re a great dealership. Thanks so much for watching!
@@HillRZRs Appreciate your reply and honesty.
Is that a paint roller or a foam roller? I’m going to do this on my shed that I built.
@@corvettetexan yes, just a paint roller works great. Good luck and thanks for watching!
Appreciate you sharing this, my sons and I are getting ready to do something similar to our Dirt bike / ATV trailer. I know the Rust-Oleum Garage coating kits are designed to adhere to concrete, I was just kind of concerned how it is doing on wood. It appears that you have 1 year on this coating / trailer since you posted the video, so my question is how is it holding up? Thanks again for the video.
Yes after a year it showed zero wear. I just sold it to buy a new one and have already done it to the new one. I'll post a video on it soon. Good luck! Thanks for watching!!
@@HillRZRs sounds great, look forward to watching it! Take care!
Thanks for sharing. This is exactly what I was looking to do when I get my 7.5x16 trailer. Looking forward to you follow up videos. Keep sharing.
It has held up perfectly! I sold this trailer last week literally, still looked perfect. I bought a new 36' the next day and am in the middle of doing the same thing to the new one. I did take some video of the 24' the day I sold it and plan to share it so you can see it was still great. Be sure to subscribe so you don't miss it. Thanks for watching and be sure to share how yours goes.
I just got a brand new trailer and it is going to be used for snowmobiles. I am debating between doing a garage for coating like you or roll-on bedliner. How well did your garage floor coating hold up when you drove on it? Would you recommend one over the other?
Add some stuff so we can use the trailer as a basic camping trailer. It's kind of like a toy hauler that's mostly hauler and basic place to lay your head in a pinch. A/C, water, outside shower,etc.
@@inspectorlee makes sense. I’m definitely planning to add a little bit of that stuff to mine as well so that we can overnight and it when we want to.
I’m just curious on the wood putty aren’t you worried about expansion and contraction? Why wouldn’t you use something more like Bondo or something would’ve had some flex to it I mean wood putty for the most part unless it’s got latex in it it’s going to drive brittle and break away causing failure when you put the Epoxy down.
I haven’t had any problems with it but yes that’s probably a better idea. Thanks for watching!
@hillsRZRs how is the rocksolid floor holding up? I have a enclosed trailer I'm wanting to do and it has primered floor. Moat other videos show naked wood. Hoping the Rock solid adheres and holds up?
Hey, it's holding up FANTASTIC. No issues at all. I actually had to order a bigger trailer today to be able to hold more UTV. I'm cleaning up the this one in the vid, this weekend to get it up for sale. I'll try to make a quick update video to post. I definitely recommend putting the clear on top. I really think it looks nice but also seals up all those flakes. I'll be doing the same to the new trailer. Thanks for watching!
Thanks for sharing, I have the same size trailer that I’m prepping to paint. If you did it again would you go ahead and hold off on the flakes and do a complete second coat? Or are you happy with the single coat? Mine is like yours were is already has a painted coat from the factory. Your thought. Yours looks great thought is would ask about that second coat before I start.
Hey thanks so much for watching! If I were going to do it all over, the only thing I'd do different is add more of the clear. There are a few spots where you can tell I put it on a little thin, when the light hits it just right.
As I note in the video the first bag of grey wasn't enough to do the ramp door and the small step, so I used some high gloss black latex paint I had and there flakes on it. It looks great to me, but if you want it all to be the same, open the second bag.
It's over a year later now I think and it still looks exactly the same. I love it.
Hi. Thanks for the video. I am curious about the wood filler. I don't want see cracks either when I do my floor. I am worried that the wood filler you used might work its way open because its not flexible. Has it opened up on your trailer?
Hey. Yes I had the exact same concerns but so far, not at all. I think the coating is so strong that’s it’s helping prevent that. But it is flexible plywood after all and it may. I will probably do a one year review when I get to that point.
Thanks so much for watching.
Did you use the 2.5 car Clear kit also and did you use all of it? Also about how much of the flake did you have left over if any?
I think it was 2 car not 2.5 but only used one of the two bags of paint.
I bought way too much flake. I bought a 10 pound bag off Amazon. For me what comes with the kit would have been too light so I'd recommend extra but not as much as I bought. Thanks for watching!
What was painted on your floor? Rustoleum was no help. I know if I don’t seal the wood then I’ll need more then one kit for my 24ft. Has this been holding up good so far?
Hey Tyler, it's holding up great! If you are talking about the treatment that was on the wood before I applied the coating, it came from the factory that way but the dealer told me it was just a standard paint/primer. I bought the 2 car kit and only used one of the two bags of solution. I did order extra flake tho. Thanks for watching!
@hillsRZRs how is the rocksolid floor holding up? I have a trailer I'm wanting to do and it has primered floor. Moat other videos show naked wood. Hoping the Rock solid adheres and holds up?
Can you give description of texture after being completed? Wanting to do this for my bbq competition trailer. But want to be able to wipe things up off the floor if they spill. Is that possible or is the texture additive to rough?
yes, because I put the clear on top afterwards it has a finish on it that I can clean very easily. It is not porous. It is more smooth and easy to clean. If you need some, you can add the grip powder to it which I did add a little bit, but that clearcoat on top makes it smooth and very easy to clean. thanks so much for watching.
What color was the chips? Was it the package with blue white and gray? Or the package that was black white and gray?
@@ZachSmith9996 black, white and grey but I do like the one with blue also. Thanks for watching!
In your video you said you bought a 40 pound bag of flakes but you commented 10 pounds? Was the 10 pounds enough. I have the same size trailer
Yes I bought way too much flake. 10 pounds was more than enough. I gave the extra to friends that used it and there's still some left.
Thanks for watching!
Thank you!!
Where did you buy from? I can only find a 12lbs or 20lbs…no 10 lbs
@@keithfowler8154 I just went back and looked at my order and I actually only ordered 20 pounds. And that 20 pound box was way more than I needed. I think if I was gonna do it again I would just buy this 5 pound bag.

Looks good I really like the heavy flakes, I will be doing the same with mine soon
I definitely prefer the heavy flake. Looks really great. Thanks for watching.
Well done... looks pretty good.
Thank you! And thanks for watching!
I am getting custom built trailer but I think I am planning on doing this myself. This is like the 4th video I watch on this topic. Good job!
It was MUCH easier than I expected, much cheaper doing it DIY, and looks fantastic. Thanks for watching!
