    I'm considering having my trailer re-painted and bunks redone. Anyone have shop recommendations in NorCal?
    Thanks,

    another way to go is powdercoating
    there is a powdercoat co. in the south area that can handle trailers...and there's a sandblasting co. next door to him if I find the number i'll post it
    this might be the one (www.pacpowder.com)

    Thanks Gameshow.
    I've sent email inquiries to both of those places. DHM looks more like a manufacturer that sells parts.....not sure if they do refurbs but we'll see what they respond with. Powdercoating looks like a good alternative to standard painting.....anyone know how the costs compare?
    Also, anyone ever gone with Trex type bunks instead of wood...is this a good idea or not?
    Thanks again,
    MOB

    Good post…
    I am thinking about having my trailer done as well… :idea:
    Another note…..
    This might be a stupid question but…what happens to the boat when the trailer is being re-done? These places have boat lifts?

    This has been addressed before. Trex has no structural value. In a deck application it NEEDS to be supported every 16" if not 12". Just a long droopy piece of plastic with some sawdust in it. If you were to pick up a long enough piece and hold it over your head, the ends would likely touch the floor.
