After catching a few more of those Monster Slabs this morning I returned to put a second coat of primer on the areas of the trailer that gets dunked. After allowing time to dry enough to Top Coat I rolled the first top coat of Tractor & Implement paint on.

I only rolled paint 1/2 way up the insides of the channel as I still have to prime the topsides of the channel. By painting the undersides several coats before flipping I will never have to paint the frame again.

I rolled all the flats that I could then left the shop fan blowing air over the frame to speed drying. The suspension will be painted black. I still have to weld up a new axle.
