Horse box and 4 horses

Seriously a small 2 wheel 6 x4 wooden trailer
Mainly for carrying used it gear about
3/4 times P.A.
Already got me a trailer
Just researching the best towing equip't

 

Also some pics on the way soon
Having black paintwork can be troublesome
Mopped and polished with tcut colourfast
Then sealed with tcut colourseal
Looks and feels delicious water beads off and the crud doesn't seem to stick so easily
Also pro clear applied to front screen
ice doesn't set and wipes away with wipers on the 1st swipe
Rain disappears anything above 25 mph
Bought a battery operated whirling brush(bit like a large orange rotating toothbrush)
Did the alloys inside and out jet blasted em off
Sealed with armour all.
The brake dust and crud just wipes away
Hard work from the offset but easier in the long run
