Galvanized hardware react w/ the enamel?

The enamel may not adhere properly, if that's what you mean. It requires additional prep vs the non-galvanized metal the rest of the trailer is made of (except maybe the coupler & jack mount.

Have you started to paint your trailer's parts & pieces yet?
Painting trailer question


Or started to assemble it yet?
