Overview
Heavy vehicles spend their working lives in the weather, and their paint shows it. VV Transcoats resprays and refinishes trucks and trailers from our workshop at Minto, in South West Sydney, for owner-drivers and transport operators.
Our project gallery includes prime movers, rigid trucks, enclosed trailers, tanker trailers and a cab chassis. Whether the job is a whole vehicle, the cab only, the body, the chassis or a trailer on its own, the scope is set out in writing before work is scheduled.
What truck and trailer painting can include
- Full resprays of the cab, body or trailer
- Painting of chassis rails, where confirmed in the scope
- Painting of tanker and trailer bodies
- Colour changes when a truck or trailer changes owner or fleet
- Refinishing of repaired panels to suit the surrounding paintwork
Trucks and trailers we work on
- Prime movers, including cab-over and conventional models
- Rigid trucks with tray, tipper, curtainside or pantech bodies
- Trailers and tautliners
- Tanker trailers
- Enclosed box trailers
- Cab chassis
Please tell us the overall length and height when you enquire so we can confirm the vehicle suits the workshop.
Why operators respray a truck or trailer
- Faded, chalky or peeling paint on a vehicle that is still in good working order
- A second-hand truck or trailer joining a fleet with different colours
- Earlier repairs that left mismatched panels
- Preparing a truck or trailer for sale

Common Questions
Can you paint a trailer or a chassis on its own?
Yes. Our gallery includes an enclosed trailer, tanker trailers and a cab chassis. Send photographs and tell us which parts are involved.
Do you need to see the truck before quoting?
Clear photographs are usually enough to start. Where the work is more involved, we arrange an inspection before the scope is confirmed.
How long will the truck be off the road?
It depends on the scope and condition. Scheduling is confirmed once the scope is approved, so downtime is planned with you rather than assumed.
