« on: August 24, 2012, 08:37:53 PM »
ive just made the new trailer for my tinny and want to get it galvanised just wondering on a rough price to know if its worth doing its only a small trailer for a 13ft tinny.

if anyone knows any places they can recommend in melbourne close to the northern suburbs that are well priced that would be a great help

thanks

There use to be a place in Nth Bayswater/Kilsyth and I think it was off Canterbury Rd. If that helps any.

It won't be cheap. I think they need to dip the whole item in a big tank.   
But GB is the place to do it.

make sure you take the springs off before you do it or else you will need to get the leaf springs tested afterwards.
(Yep i have been reading up for my trailer build.)
