    Default Enclosed trailer floor: dark or light?

    Just wondering if anyone has done something different than your basic gray floor or checkerboard/ATP, or the laminate that somebody did? Will a dark trailer floor make the interior too dark? The more I type, I don't think so...
    I'm thinking of going with a royal/dark blue floor and main ramp, orange ramp ext. and maybe some trim, and maybe stick with the light gray/silver walls.
    Also, did you remove the trim pieces before you painted? I tend to be a perfectionist, but I realize some things don't have to be perfect.
    FWIW, the trailer is white, the car is silver with orange "accents".
    Thanks for reading,
    Michael

    I always like a light colored floor, either light grey, tan, or white.

    It's easier to spot dropped parts and fluid drips.

    I recently put down black epoxy floor coating on the floor and ramp of my 24' enclosed. With white walls, I must say it looks pretty good and isn't "dark feeling" at all.

    Thanks John and Ty. So far I've got one coat of what turned out to be royal blue; it's not dark enough so I'll fix that with the second coat.
    I went with a light gray on the walls and so far I think it'll look good when I'm done.
    Thanks,
    Michael

    Since I dusted off the digi-cam this weekend, and it finally stopped raining so I could work more on the trailer, I took a few pictures of the black epoxy floor coating I recently did.
