    POR 15 Floor Armor

    There was an extensive thread 5 years ago discussing the POR epoxy product. http://www.garagejournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=9388 I was one of those who bought into their "minimal prep" sales pitch. I have since learned that, as you already know, there is no substitute for good floor prep...

    Recommendations for wall panels

    Hi Jeffy, welcome to Garagejournal! I was also looking to cover a section of my garage wall with a slatwall product. I chose the Gladiator system mainly because of availability - it's sold at Sears and Lowes. This week I picked up a bunch of the individual Geartrack channels on sale at Sears...

    POR 15 floor epoxy

    I would also like to thank Chris & Dave for their excellent customer support. I have finished my garage floor with POR-15 and, to date, I am very happy with the outcome. I have had no peeling under the cars' tires, but I also admit I haven't encountered the specific conditions (hot, wet tires)...

    Door remote programming help...

    I believe the Craftsman door openers were manufactured by Chamberlain. Beautiful garage - I love the brick work.

    POR 15 floor epoxy

    I have also had no failures in my POR-15 floor, although it hasn't been properly tested yet with vehicle storage. As of right now, I'm very happy with the product since my floor looks GREAT. If it fails, I will be very UNhappy. In fairness to both POR-15 and to the consumers here, I will...

    POR 15 floor epoxy

    I believe the company that manufactures POR-15 products is in NJ. Chris works for a company that sells POR-15.

    Let's talk taxes....

    Generally you will not have any deductions for improvements to a residence, including a residential garage. However, you still need to keep records of your home improvement expenditures. If you ever sell your property you may have a taxable gain to report if your sales price exceeds your cost...

    POR 15 floor epoxy

    Just to go on record, I applied POR-15 to my garage floor last weekend. It looks beautiful right now, but I have yet to park a car on it. I'll do that this weekend. (Keeping my fingers crossed). I used the Deluxe kit, so I have 2 coats of color (light grey) with color chips on the second...

    FastCop, What roller do you recommend to avoid the bubbles in the clearcoat? (I'm planning to do my floor this coming weekend). Thanks, John

    My new garage

    Evan, I'm right next to Rochester (Troy, MI)! Did you have much trouble finding a garage to lease in the area? I've been thinking about doing the same, so I can store & work on my '57 Chevys. John

    Chick Needs Some Help!

    Agreed. I wouldn't even hang drywall on that ceiling, if that's the plan.

    POR 15 group purchase

    Chris - just a suggestion... you have 5 orders in the bag. The longer you delay the greater the risk that those customers will jump ship and go to another product [hint, hint]. Why not process the orders you have, with the discount, of course, to keep your customers happy? I for one do not...
