    Painting the Walls

    My garage is 16x36 and interior walls are sheeted over with 1/2" bare plywood. I have to paint the walls, and looking for any tips or suggestions. I like the idea of white as it keeps everything bright and clean. But I guess white also gets dirty. I'm thinking of maybe painting the lower...

    Baseboard heaters on plywood

    Yes it is electric heaters. My bad, I had a 2000w and 2500w installed directly on plywood and turned ON for 5 straight months last winter. Gulp. Thanks for the tip. So I guess I have to remove these heaters and install a piece of gyproc behind the heater? Is it okay to cut just a piece the...
