I live by the sea, and everything rusts including my armpits, between my toes, and probably other unmentionable places. Well, in the past having to refinish trailer frames, I had the Pod's frame undercoated at purchase. The frame proper is no problem then, but it's time for some TLC for the tongue, steps , and levelers. So, sand 'em and Rustoleum, spray can truck bed liner, or what? Any thoughts or suggestions on what will work best for me in my situation?

I have found Rustoleum satin finish black (spray can) closely matches the original black paint.  It is what I use.  I "touch up",as needed, each year, in the spring.  Hint - remove the propane bottles and battery(s) - these areas are prone to rust (underneath).

  I am with David on the Rustoleum, but first I use the Rustoleum Red Primer over any of the spots that need it.   Goose
