Good day Shane, Could I ask why you don't want to sandblast the trailer? If you simply don't want to sandblast I'd suggest a couple of options (both require a little more elbow grease). First off you could go for a small hand grinder with a wire brush wheel. I have no access to a sandblaster so this has been my primary rust remover over the years (which has to be carefully used so as to not damage the metal). Secondly, if you have lots of time you could always go for a rough grit sandpaper and take care of the surface rust that way. Now, this all depends on your reasons for not wanting to use a sandblaster. So, if you could, let us know just why you seek a different method. God bless. --old fashioned farmer
