Doug,
That's a great idea and I probably should have thought of it. I live on the coast and for the last two years we have been playing with epoxy primer and rubber undercoating on some of our boat trailers with great success, no rust at all. I say that but it is only a two year test whereas I have galvanized trailers that are ten years old with the only rust showing on bolt threads where most galv. has been removed. I'm confident that the galvanized method would have been a better choice but I have already spent many hours installing and finishing this sheet metal. It's not perfect but I have to say it is a much much better than when it came from factory. I think I will add one more coat of undercoating just to be safe while I have the goose turned up side down and can get into every nook.
Thanks
Rich
