Got tired of looking at the chipped and faded factory paint on the 97's trailer hitch, and the 93's red hitch has faded (thought it would look industrial) after 4 years. So pulled them both and dropped them off at the sandblaster. They also powder coat there, but wanted $100 to powder coat them black and it would take several days before they do black again. So, I'm going to rattle can them after proper surface prep and priming for a total cost of $15 instead. It won't last as long, but I can touch up black every few years without even taking it off. Has anyone painted their hitch a color besides black? The red looked kinda cool until it faded after about 3 years. I was thinking about Caterpillar yellow this time. Then I chickened out and picked up some semi gloss black on the way home after looking at the hammered metal paint for a while.
So any suggestions? One truck is dark blue, the other dark green (coolest color on an 80 ever).
