Ruby, the gem




We've been working on getting the aluminum prepared for paint and have decided to try our hand with simple Rustoleum paint. We have to go with something affordable for us. I don't know how long Rustoleum will hold up, but it is surely readibly available to buy if touch-ups are needed, etc.


I had planned on the Gem being white with the bottom portion being silver. We simply can't get a silver we like. I've decided to go with "Regal Red" instead. Since she's a "Little Gem" and going to be red, we gave her a new name, RUBY. Thinking it might be fun to "picture" what the trailer would look like in red, here is a mockup of what it might look like when finished.
