Estimates for a job this size.
The problem
Rails and a mesh deck: hundreds of small openings and edges where rust starts. A wire wheel canโt get into the mesh.
The setup
The tank on its stand beside the trailer: fill it once and keep going. A pressure washer from 1,800 PSI up, ground you can hose down.
How it ran
- Top rails, one side at a time
- The mesh deck, at an angle so the stream goes through
- Uprights and corners
- Under the deck and the tongue
- Rinse it down
The finish
Inhibitor in the last rinse, the mesh left to drain, AP1, then paint the same day.
