    Dont know if this is in the right place to post but was woundering if any panel beaters could give rough idea of spraying a 8x4x18" double axle trailer. Its full steel so would need sanding or sand blasting and undercoat and finish coat.

    You could get it soda or wet blasted
    And maybe tackle the paint yourself
    You can hire a compressor fairly cheaply .

    At a rough guess I'd say your lookin at €400 to €500 to get someone else to do it

    Paint it with good rust paint like hammerrite or triflow. Brush on a few coats and it will be grand. Pointless spending that to get it sprayed as it will get marked very quickly. You could also use a rust primer and some tractor paint
