    Garage Planning - What all to tell the builder

    I'd put in a hose bib so you can easily hook up to rinse the floor, and floor drains if you're allowed to have them. Ask for plenty of outlets on every wall (multiple circuits can be helpful), and possibly run conduit (smurf tube) in the walls for EV charger wiring to each parking bay. Even if...

    Michigan Morton 60x42x16

    Can I ask who your Morton rep was, and how you liked working with them? I'm looking into doing some construction through them and would love to hear feedback on your experience. Building looks awesome!!

    Any advice on DA Polisher

    Do your research on an actual detailing forum instead of on here, if you want to get accurate and thorough information. If you take the word of the Porter Cable voters without further information, you're being sold an orange when you asked for an apple. You need to consider your use case before...

    What to use to wash Racedeck tiles ?

    Are any of your cleaners listed on your website? I have Costco MotoFloor in my garage that has become stained (white tiles no longer white, etc.) and I'm looking for a better solution to hopefully restore them.

    Potential Asbestos floor tiles what to do?

    Interesting; I didn't realize the adhesive had Asbestos in it too. I had that stuff in my basement, still sitting under the carpet and pad we put down to replace original tiles from 1949-50.

    My Racedeck floor after two years of use

    I think the gloss finish probably has a lot to do with it holding up well... mine with the regular finish doesn't look anywhere near as nice as when I first installed it. The white tiles especially have really discolored over time. I am curious, how slippery do the glossy finish tiles get when wet?

    Garage coating test -- Brakleen...

    Something I'm surprised that wasn't mentioned (unless I missed it)... are you guys using chlorinated brakleen, or non-chlorinated? There's a pretty significant difference with regard to the solvents you're exposing the floor to, and that may affect how the coating reacts. That said, I've had...

    Need A Builder/Contractor Recommendation in Michigan

    :beer: I was just talking with my CPA today, and he was showing me a building he had built by Byrum. I'll be giving them a call, and I'll look up C&S as well. Thanks for the leads!

    Need A Builder/Contractor Recommendation in Michigan

    Another bump, I'm in Lansing and also looking for a builder. The folks I started out working with turned out to be horrible at meeting expectations during the design phase.

    Pegboard users!

    I lined my entire barn in pegboard and hung all the lawn/landscape tools from it. Works pretty well.

    Blow Gun Comparable to Vacula?

    Check out Prevost... a French company with some really nice stuff; in addition to the blow guns you'll want to pick up their "S1" safety quick couplers.

    Here's the single car garage I've been detailing out of for the past 12-13 years... http://www.garagejournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=312252 Probably a lot more elaborate than you're looking for at this point but it might give you something to shoot for.
