Hi, I am fully done finishing my garage. I have about 2' high concrete slabs from the ground that I want to add some sort of soft material wall guard so that my door doesn't hit concrete part. I thought about cutting pool noodles, use adhesive to mount it and then paint it (Benjamin moore). But...

So I currently have old chain driven, noisy (and I feel it's flimsy) garage opener that my builder installed it in 2007 when the house was build. My garage is 20'x20'. I have completely redone the garage. I wanted a nice quiet garage opener that I can open close via remote keys and possibly...

Priming and painting is done. waiting on doing the stripe. I have a question, what's a good size stripe? I was thiking 6" wide? not too small, not too big. Also, was thinking to use gloss. Is that cool? or should I do semi gloss? thanks It'll be a Red Stripe

Thank you for all the replies! I'm overwhelmed by all the great replies! Thank you. I swear, I saw it somewhere. I know the color black didn't just pop in my brain for no reason. Do you think you can take a picture for me? I'd like to see it. Well my ceiling is primer white. I'm thinking to...

hi I have those metal things holding my garage door. what color should I paint them? I was thinking black color. Roof and wall colors are white and gray.

THANK YOU so much for all your replies! I really appreciate it! I have def. changed my mind about primer. I WILL be using primer. You guys are correct. Noted. I was thinking eggshell? I'm nervous semi gloss may show too much imperfection. Flat might grab too much dirt imo. I bought...

So, I'm going to primer my garage Tuesday. I had a question: I have an electrical box on the wall. It's a nice size. Ugly brown color :wtf: Do I paint this electrical box or keep it same color? I wanted to paint it. I'll be doing a red 8"-10" stripe. It'll most like go through it. so top...

ok .. little sneak peek.. I just couldn't NOT share it.. I put enough flakes. I ordered extra but didn't use all. bc I also wanted base coat to see though too.. I DO NOT like the huge amount of blue flecks 6 lbs bag comes with. I didn't not do 2 white, 2 black, 2 blue. Rather, I did 2 lbs of...

I wanted to chime in and say THANK YOU to the OP for this thread. VERY VERY helpful. I just laid down armor clad with flakes in my garage and it's absolutely beautiful! I will have to agree with few key points: 1. 18" rollers!!! Please get them. Made my life so much easier. It was a breeze...

I'm in the process of finishing my garage. Hoping to finish epoxy floor next week. I had someone speckle and sand my walls in the garage. It's a 20'x20' garage. I want to do my wall paint similar to this: Some kind of gray with red stripe in the middle. Top part in white. Can you recommend...

Man I had no idea about free Beige primer. If i knew, I probably get beige. BUT After looking at some pics, I'm actually set on med gray base with black/white/light blue/dark gray flecks. I have actually JUST sent an email to you guys to change my order from light gray to med gray base. Thanks...

Thanks everyone for the replies. Just pulled the trigger on the ArmorClad Master kit (600 sq ft) one. I wanted baige but that required primer. Extra work and expense that I didn't want to do. so I had to pick a color quick over the phone. I picked light gray with black/white/blue flecks. Not...

Hi, Long time lurker here. I have a 20'x20' (400 sq ft) garage.The walls has been speckled and sanded ready for paint.....in 2014!! :( .. but busy life got to me. I also race regularly in SCCA solo. I actually own two solo cars (Corvette and 370Z). Busy solo schedule pretty much prevented me...
