What kind of trailer is that, for a bike or a car? What is the material you are painting? If it's sheet metal similar to a car's exterior, like HSS, and it will be attached to your vehicle, then you may want to paint it like you would a vehicle.
It looks like a good coat, but I don't know how many coats you've placed, nor how you primed it, so it could turn into a bad job in the near future. I also cannot see every dimension from just one picture.

To paint like a car, remove the old paint, start with self etching primer, use water based car paint, so you will also need a clear coat, and turn your garage into a makeshift drying room for a couple days. There's a couple youtube videos on it.

Buy proper PPE, because car paint, even water based, is very bad for you.

If the material is metal, you can probably also try powdering it. That would look awesome. But you'll need access to a large enough oven.

Calm down dude it's just a trailer for my lawn mower I only repainted it to get rid of the rust because I sanded the old paint and rust off then used a primer and paint ment for metal. I don't expect it to be pretty just for it to make it last a little longer it's going to get beat up it's for hay/dirt rocks and goat's so it's not going to be pretty

I grew up in a body shop/technician garage, and collision repair was my first job (my dad has a shop), so this is the way I assess a paint job. I didn't mean any offense, my first projects were similar to this, and I accidentally channeled that time of my life. My dad would pick up random stuff (run down trailers, steel chairs, etc.), and I had to remove the rust, fix dents, rustproof, then paint. He wanted to see it better than new. Sometimes I powder coated it, which is my preference with projects like this.

Your coat is clean.
