Can I please have access to post replies etc. Just tried to contact a guy selling stuff and I can not post there. Can You help me out please?

Thanks guys, you just helped me out a lot and more than answered my question. I assume that the wire I run into the breaker panel should also be stapled within 6 to 12 inches also. Would that be correct? Once this is done, I'll see how long it takes for the inspector guy to get to my place...

Recently I have completed the build of my detached, non-commercial garage in the Adirondaks of New York. 100 amp service has been completed to it and is terminated in a breaker panel. So far everything is good as per an electrical inspector who gave his okay. Now I would like to complete the...

What about the Hot Dawg vented gas heaters?

My local propane supplier will rent me a 100 lbs tank for $100/year. aSKED ABOUT A 1000 PONDER BUT THEY SAID THEY ONLY go up to 250 gallon tanks and will rent them too for $150-200 / year. I'll just buy my own tank(s). So I would prefer to find a 1000pounder and enjoy the savings for several...

I'm considering a propane forced hot air system for my garage. My questions are where can I buy the heater and a 1000 gal propane tank without loosing my shirt.

The fixtures should be suspended but after speaking to the manufacturer, there is no minimum or max distance it needs to hang. So I will leave just 2-3 inches between the fixture and the ceiling. They will be spaced 6 feet apart giving overlap of light on the ground/work bench so I will have...

I have a 25x30 foot garage with 10' ceilings. Just picked up 6 Lithonia I-Beam 4 bulb t5 HO fixtures. Pricey but I'm hoping to have a bright work shop. Ya think its over kill?

I don't like open heat sources when a high dust(combustion) environment could exist. How about a forced hot air furnace from a used mobile home? Sure, you'll be changing filters or removing and blowing out but you would have a choice of propane and/or kerosene. Takes minutes for the heat to...

Thank you so much for the answer. You have just given me much needed reassurance and eased my mind. The epoxy and chips are down and it looks darn good. can't wait until this entire job is done so I can continue stuffing all my junk back into this garage. Thanks again.

Can anyone answer the last question posted?

After getting out of the Navy, I installed that stuff on naval ships. Worst, we had to remove that stuff first with jack hammers on steel decks prior to preparation. You wouldn't believe the racket and mess this **** makes. Anyway, I'm a little prejudiced due to my use of the product but my...

Okay. In order to apply the Poly clear coat, Epoxy coat recommends that this be applied 18-24 hours after the base epoxy is applied. Considering that the cure time varies as the temps decline, how do I know when to apply the clear coat Polyurea on top of the epoxy?

I am in an uneasy position of laying my Epoxy-Coat in the 40-50 degree range. Night will likely dip into the mid to high 30's. Epoxy Coat gives the green light for their product down to 40 degrees. The floor temp is 50 degrees at this point. Has anyone laid there epoxy products at these...

epoxy coat says it can be laid down to 40 degrees. Check the manufacturer for their input.
