Got a nice day to do some more painting. The first thing I did was clear coat the wagon itself. Wiped it down with acetone to remove more of the oxidized finish and dirt than gave it a couple coats of a gloss clear finish. I think I'm going to give it another coat in about a week to allow the current coat to fully cure. 



Also painted the brace I added to the rear wheel support




Also got some stuff done on the trailer. Painted the ramp board black. 

Prepared the trailer for the diamond plate mat. Cleaned everything and masked off the area that will have contact cement applied. 

Spread a coat of contact cement on the trailer and mat. 


Waited about half an hour for the cement to get just a bit tacky then stuck down the mat to the trailer. Clamped down what I could to make sure it goes nowhere. 

 The mat is now cemented down and shouldn't go anywhere now. Some of the edged didn't stick down as well as I expected to I added some staples to hold the mat down. 




Getting both closer to being done. The weather this next week should help, not a lot of rain in the forcast.
