I definitely like the clearcoat idea, I just need to find big labels. The carts I got have the trash company's logo melted in, so I need a large enough sticker to cover them. Aside from the company info stickers im going to buy some big METAL ONLY stickers to place on the sides and on the lid.

my target accounts are small mom and pop stores, I am a landscaper, and our shop is in a small industrial park, and that's where im looking to target first. ACME REFINING has pretty much dominated the area, but they don't service small shops, they go after the big metal machining and punching companies, and there are a lot of those. I service one small machine shop, he's got all his different metals sorted, from the steel, aluminum, carbide, he sorts it all.
