In this video we gave our old arctic sectional 10.5LD a facelift. We need to go deeper on the backside and replace bolts and worn parts but that is for another day. Please let us know what you thought in the comments and be sure to consider subscribing.

I used oil based glossy black rustoleum by the gallon to repaint my rusty dump trailer , rolled and brushed it on to get thicker coverage. It sticks to the metal very well. I sanded and washed it all 1st. Prep work makes all the difference. Did it in summer when it was 85 outside. Plow looks great

Nice! That does work really well we have done a few dump bodies that way. Thats what I need to do! All painting in the summer lol

Yeah, we learned our lesson too. After the first one, just the straight cloud. But you're better off buying a gallon of paint and put it on with a brush and roller. It's a mathick or layer. Paint will cover a quicker and last longer. You're fine probably beans at spray paint that it'll wear a lot quicker because it's only 10 Coats even though you put several on and I think we're getting some just toleration is where you had parts of the playing there. Rock garden block or paint it block. And some part of yellow and then some part for prime were that you were touching up the rusyellow is A. You would think it would cover. All right, but it's hard to get the coverage with spray paint.

Yeah we have rolled a few dump body and that works really well. May go that route next time or just sand blast and powder coat.

After watching this, if I ever have a plow last this long, it's going out for blasting and powder 😅

An old worn arctic is still better than a new non-sectional snow box.

@nickenslandscapingexcavating 7 ай бұрын

Amen to that! I couldn’t afford a new sectional, I could have bought a new cheaper one but I wanted a sectional

@willieslawncareservice.8436 7 ай бұрын

You should buy rostolium paint oil base yellow does a great job and use a roller

@nickenslandscapingexcavating 7 ай бұрын

I will definitely look into it! We are going to be doing the sides on our other sectional so they match.

Nice job man. You always do a good job and it's nice seeing someone else that works on their own equipment like I do too. Did you figure out your electrical problem with your truck plow?

@nickenslandscapingexcavating 7 ай бұрын

Thanks man! Appreciate you watching. We try to do everything we can ourselves, saves us when something breaks down out in the field and we know what we’re looking at. I still haven’t had time to chase that issue down yet. Hopefully this week.

@@nickenslandscapingexcavating Have you checked the relay and the power wire connection going to the plow yet? Just making sure it got a good connection.
