Based on my experience with cold galvanizing compound spray paint, I would say no. It is a soft, not very durable and not very long lasting material, with minimal rust protection. If you will notice, no trailer manufacturer offers a trailer with such a final coating. They always use paint. CGC paint is most recommended for touching up old galvanized surfaces that are begininng to show early rusting and wear.

You would be wise to either use a good quality paint or consider a new/used trailer.
