It's the Rust Oleum kit from Home Depot. I had the same kit at my old house and it held up great for 2 years. It still looked like new when I moved out.

dubber, When the home was built it only had the 2 car garage. the 3rd car was added on and there is a wall in between. I like it that way. It keeps kids (and mindless adults) away from my Chevelle. More Impala:

Next I plan to run a hard air line to the ceiling on each side with a retractable hose reel for each. I also need to build a rack to store my coolers. Haven't figured out what I'm going to do there yet. I like to hide as much as possible from view for a more clean look. Any creative ideas for...

Time to paint the 2 car floor: basecoat is down: clearcoat is down: Organized the right side with a Rubbermaid Fast Track system: Front of 2 car. Next I will be getting one more Craftsman wall cabinet. The white shoe rack will be trashed. And I need to find something different to do...

Step 1: removed everything from walls. Patched scuff marks and holes in drywall. removed workbench. (My impala is so long it wouldn't fit on that side of the garage.) Then painted the walls a light grey color. I really wanted it a little darker but 5 gallons of this paint was free. A friend of...

Thanks for the tip. The water hose trick has helped a lot. I have been able to grind about 1/4 of the floor in only about 1.5 hours. It was a lot slower with all the dust flying. Thanks for the tip! This will also cut down on the time required for cleanup at the end.

I was able to finish the small third car garage. I was amazed at how easily the diamond brush took the old finish off. However the dust was completely unbarable and I could only run the grinder for about 30 seconds at a time. The worst part is that I live in a subdivision and my neighbor's cars...

I will be starting he grinding process once I get the garage cleaned out. Is it necessary to use the acid wash after grinding? How long should I wait for the base coat to dry before applying the clear?

Hello all, I am new to the forum. I have enjoyed the reading so far. My garage has been a work in progress for some time now. The walls have been painted and my next step is to paint the floor. The house originally had a 2 car garage attached to it and the prior owner attached a third bay as...
