Interested In Painting Farm Outbuildings.


Howdy,

Wondering if any extierior paint contractors frequent the board? Thinking about painting some smaller type farm outbuildings for a few friends and nieghbors this summer. Have a few questions concerning spray on vs roll on, powerwash vs scrape, ect.

Not sure how big of a pressure washer I might need, a good middle of the road paint sprayer, which type of paint to use? Anything else I might need to get started that I'm not thinking of? Thanks a bunch for any help.

I'd like to pickup an enclosed trailer to pull around behind my pickup for equipment. Any size recommendations? Also whats best for doing higher sided buildings? Scaffolding I suppose?

If I had good luck with this, and decided to go commercial, what would be my first steps?

Thanks a bunch for any help.

Ryan
