    Nice job man, I have a friend of a friend who converts these old horse trailers into Campers/Tiny homes. He uses Tractor Paint to paint them, It's cheap and durable.

    Did you figure out what was wrong with. My atv does the same thing. I cleaned carb twice and changed coil. Still does it. I think it may be a valve problem

    Did you have to thin the paint at all to use the Graco Magnum?

    How did you know it was only surface rust versus deeper issues?

    • @blackdandelion5549
      @blackdandelion5549 Před 5 měsíci

      You learn to tell by the thickness of the metal vs the depth of the rust and how much the rust looks like it has "eaten" away. It will actually look like a deeper crevice and that it you go over it to sand that you will be able to see to the other side. Now, in some areas that are not of major importances this is not a life or death issue and sometimes epoxy is used to fill rust spots and then sanded to create and nice smooth and even surface to paint. The issue you are looking for is if these rust spots are on major metal pieces such as the frame work of the trailer. If they are many or just one spot that happened to have water sitting or a high water flow area under a tree. If the areas are small and likely wont go through if you go over it with a wire brush or if you are going to need to actually replace metal or do body work on the trailer. One small heavy wear spot here or there that is not on a piece of frame and is so small I can epoxy and sand is something I can deal with. . . . . . . .20 spots I would need to epoxy to have a smooth surface after sanding because the rust is everywhere is a different story and gives me much greater pause to get that trailer a thorough go through as I expect rust in places I don't want to "fix" like the frame and I'm not going to be welding that. When you see the rust spots you can tell if they look like they have eaten a crater into the metal or if they are just eating the finish off kind of everywhere and it needs a new paint job, but there is plenty of metal left to work with.

    • @andreawilliamson6718
      @andreawilliamson6718 Před 11 měsíci

      You shouldn't really need to if you've used a sealant. I like Sparthane since it's made for boats its very thick and lasts thru the elements

    • @andreawilliamson6718
      @andreawilliamson6718 Před 11 měsíci

      But if no sealant was applied waxing can help longevity

    Looking to do a refurbish myself. Your project looks great. May I ask what you had for cost in the trailer initially? I'm just trying to avoid getting hosed and everything I find needs extensive metal work. I don't mind some and I can weld "some" but im just trying to avoid losing my shirt on what I get into.

    I have a Bayou 220 and 250 that idled poorly. They wouldn't race like the one in the video but they idled irregularly and required throttle input for the first few minutes of warm up or they'd die out. My carbs were spot free clean. I think the throttle bores were worn out. I ended up replacing both carbs with chinses carbs. I installed the factory jets and have had no issues. The chinese carbs are a good cheap solution for bad OEM carbs. The quad in this video might have had more issues than what I've described. That sure looks like a lean condition (Air leak) or the throttle is hanging up.
