Expert Reply:
Most acrylic coatings will adhere directly to cleaned galvanized metal. A weathered galvanized surface develops a layer of white rust, which must be removed to ensure good adhesion of the coating. Wire brushing or scrubbing with a stiff brush or abrasive pad is recommended to remove the white rust.
As long as your trailer tongue is 2 inches wide the mount part # CE31013G is going to fit and work well.
