Yes, that paint will work. Just do the proper prep. It's all in the prep.

"Epoxy Topside Poly Urethane"?? Do you mean Marine 1 part Polyurethane? 2 part epoxy paint? Epoxy barrior coat? something else?

Trailer Rollers and bunks are hard of paint. Pick a tough paint.

I am not an expert, but I think it is either 2 part epoxy paint or a one or two part polyurethane paint. Awlgrip is pretty good. Perfection is pretty good. Brightside is 1 part and pretty good. Imron is real good, but not cheap and tricky to work with.

What kind of appearance do you want to achieve? Mirror finish requires a polyurethane.
