Hey gang ,started the trailer restore last week and have got it ready for paint and have wet sanded the fenders and put the new led lights in. The wet sanding was not as bad as I thought it would be ,the top of my fenders were rough and dull after being 22 years old and oxydized real bad,took the carpet off the steps and put rubber diamond plate back on,still got alot to do but here are some pics and to show what a little work will do to brimg back that new look.
