I'm looking to redo the paint on my trailer and I'm looking for suggestions on the best way to get all the deck boards off. Seeing as how the fasteners are all rusted unscrewing them probably isn't an option. Torch them off and push the screws back through the boards once their off the trailer, reuse the boards and new screws once the trailer is done?
The trailer isn't terrible but not as nice as I would like it to be. I'm thinking only part of it needs to be sand blasted and the rest just cleaned off good then painted over. Would sand blasting the tongue, outside rub/frame rail, front and rear of the trailer, and just cleaning up the main frame work along with all the cross members before paint be fine or just spend the money and have the whole trailer sand blasted?
Some pictures to show what I'm working with, open to any suggestions.
Deck screws.
Worst area's of the trailer.
Front:
Side Rails:
Rear:
Area's I'm considering just power washing, maybe wire wheel and painting over.
Crappy picture of the trailer.
