Just finished my 2x4 basics workbench yesterday. I made it 2'x7' so that I would have some room for my tool box on top as well as room for pegboard. It came out really good, and was easy to do.

I got my kit and will begin to build it this weekend, but have a couple of questions. I plan on building a 2x7 workbench, with a small shelf that will be 1x4 and have a pegboard behind it. This way it will allow me room to put my tool box to the right of it on the workbench. Couple of...

Will be working on my 2x4 basics bench this weekend. Jeff....where did you get the top for your's, and what dimension is that? I'm gonna probaly do a 7x2 dimension, and use the shelves to build a top shelf and room to put pegboard, probably only a 4 ft section, leaving me space to put my tool...

I just ordered a 2X4 Basics workbench and it should arrive today. I'm off work tomorrow so I'm going to get the father in law to help me put it together. I just have a 3 car garage, and will basically be using this to tinker around on, and I also want to put some pegboard up on the back side...

Put the etching on last night. I swept out the garage again, washed it down, then made up the mixture of the acid and water. I started from the back and worked my way to the front. I kept having to change up my sprayer because it didn't seem to be spraying enough of the mixture. I mixed it...

Tonight I finally get to start my epoxy coat project. Took a while to get the epoxy thanks to UPS losing part of my order. All I was able to do last weekend was to blow out the garage, and pressure wash it. This is a three car garage on a new house we will be moving into this Saturday, so...

Well....thought I was picking it up. The full kit I ordered has been lost, only received the 1/2 kit. Really frustrating....I have a short window to do this before we move into our new house. I'm hoping that UPS can find it and deliver to Lowes today or tomorrow.

The foundation was poured in April, so well over 30 days

Going to get my order from Lowes this afternoon. We close on our new house Thursday, and I'm hoping to start prep on the floor Friday night. This is a brand new garage floor, there are no oil stains, etc, so what steps should I do to prep a brand new floor? It was pressure washed just the...

Christine, I was the one ordering from Lowes last night in Texas. Thanks so much for helping them to place the order. I'll be using it in a couple of weeks on our brand new home, and will post pictures once completed.

I'm moving into a new house in a few weeks, and I'm going to do the garage floor with Epoxy Coat before we move in. It is a three car garage. One section is 36X12.5 and the other is 19.5X11 which when added together equal about 665 sq feet total. Based on those of you that have used this...

On my previous house I used the Quickrete epoxy kit from Lowes. It looked great for awhile, but doesn't stop the paint from coming up due to hot tires. We are building a new house in Houston area, and I will be going with the epoxy-coat kits this time. Based on what I've read, they seem...

Why did it take you 4 kits to complete the job? Shouldn't each kit have covered 500 sq ft if used properly? Just wondering because I'm about to do mine at 900 sq ft, and was only going to order two kits.

This is what my garage layout will look like. It will be brand new concrete, but has been poured for over 60 days. I'm planning on just etching it with the stuff you send in the kit, and then pressure washing it. Do you think this will be sufficient on a new floor? I've got my brother in law...

We are going to be moving into our new house at the end of July. The house has a three car garage (approx 920 sq ft). I'm wanting to epoxy coat my floor. I did it at my old house using quickrete's epoxy kit from lowes. It looked great for awhile but started peeling up. Looking for something...
