    Sealer for brick paver patio?

    Can anyone recommend a brand of sealer to use on a brick paver patio? I just had a patio put in and I wanted to apply a sealer to lock it in. I'm in Florida so no concern with freeze/thaw, but definitely looking for something that holds up to UV (patio gets full sun for most of the day) and...

    Exterior Light Option. Traditional barn light or Sofit Lighting?

    Can lights provide more light that washes downward towards the area you need lit. From a distance, this floods the area around the building in light. Some wall mount fixtures and spotlight/floodlight type fixtures can cause issues with glare. When you look at the building from the street or from...

    indoor security camera

    Wyze makes cameras with a standard (wider) view or a close up/telephoto lens. Order what you need. I have the standard/wider for my driveway, and a zoom cam is pointed on the street where I park my company car at night. Either cam is at the same price point. Order what you need.

    Tire tread marks

    The chemical make up in tires can definitely leave staining in some surfaces like your wood floor which is likely covered in a clear urethane of some type. For a DIY fix think of this problem along the lines of a small scratch or stain in the paint/clearcoat of your car. You may want to try a...

    wall rack system for hanging stuff?

    I used a metal slat wall/ pegboard from this site. Its the discount/clearance section of a major brand. Different sizes and they can hang in horizontal or vertical orientation, just order what you want and pick the color. As a clearance site, not everything is in stock at all times. They are...

    Rustoleum EpoxyShield top coat?

    Between the Ultraglaze, Red Label or SPGX is there a big difference in coverage per gallon? Ease of use? This would be applied to a new floor w/ 3-week-old layer of Epoxyshield with light flake. Im right at 400 sq ft. (20x20). Thanks again for all of the advice!

    Rustoleum EpoxyShield top coat?

    Armorpoxy, What would the prep/application process be using Ultraglaze? How about adding flakes to this product? Besides adding the topcoat to the existing floor, I was also hoping to add additional flakes. Thanks

    Rustoleum EpoxyShield top coat?

    Justin Thanks for the reply. Regarding recoat times, I specifically asked Rustoleum customer support if I needed to sand if using their clear coat. I also let them know the floor had been installed for about 15 days. They told me it was not necessary, just clean/degrease and allow to dry before...

    Rustoleum EpoxyShield top coat?

    So, I have a new garage on a new build home and had the builder do me a “favor “ and he coated the garage floor using Rustoleum 2 part epoxy kit. It’s not what I would have used, but it’s done. I’m wanting to add a top coat to protect and increase the durability. I also want to add more flake...

    Advice- new driveway expansion cuts look wavy/crooked!

    I appreciate the discussion everyone. I’m not a concrete guy. If I want to caulk it, what caulk do you suggest. This is in Florida, so no freeze and thaw, but UV and heat. Thanks again everyone.
