    Had some time to clean up today. Here are some pics of the floor coating for those that had interest. So the first pic is before being cleaned. Second pic with lift is after cleaning ( sorry, to lazy to move lift again but you can see the difference) 3 is up close pic of some recent damage...

    Tool boxes and carts roll around very easy. There is some grip but not as much as a broom finish on concrete. So it can be swept. I usually use a medium stiffness broom and have no problems. Saw dust tends to be a little harder to sweep out. Oil wipes right up. If you look at my second pic...

    The floor coating has held up extremely well. I would definitely use it again if the chance arises. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk

    Couple of new pics. Got the driveway asphalt put in. Bought some harbor freight accessories for the garage. Lift table and wheel chock. I attached the chock with some pan screws and wing nuts so I can remove it if needed. My truck is high enough to park over the lift so I leave it there and...

    I planned for almost all of my tools and work bench along the back wall save for a couple of ladders. I am trying to keep the space pretty clean. So far the Behr Granite Grip floor coating is holding up well considering my truck tires are covered in small gravel every time I drive in and park...

    The garage ran about $60k including taxes. We spent extra money to make sure the garage look matched the look of the existing house using hardiplank siding, stone veneer on the front, etc. If this would have been built further from the main house I would have gone with cheaper materials.

    We did think about adding it to the house but it would have increased the cost a lot especially to redo the roof area. I have a few things I would do differently if money wasn't the limiting factor. First, I would have gone longer, probably 40 ft. I had to stop at 30 ft because of the slope of...

    Unfortunately, I did find a wet spot that stuck to my sock but I was able to repair it very easily. The last 3 pictures are of the same area through the entire painting process to show coverage. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk

    After letting the second coat dry for 24 hours I am really pleased with the out come. The color is very even and the texture is non slip for sure Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk

    The granite grip is like a fine sand and colored glue mixed together. You have to use a 1/4 expoy type roller cover when spreading it out. I did the perimeter with a 3 inches brush and then rolled the rest of the first coat. I found it easiest to mix the paint with my drill then pour some out...

    At this point I I told my CG that I am done with waiting and that I will take over from here. I have been waiting since June for them to fix my spalling concrete and the SLC fixed that but brought more issues. So I rented a 20" sander and got to work. I was able to knock down all the high...

    Well it took a lot longer than planned but the floor issue has been addressed. I wish my concrete pour would have been good from the start but it is what it is. Basically what the GC ended up doing was bringing in someone to float the floor with a self leveling compound. Long story short, even...

    Well we had some issues with the concrete pop up. Nothing huge like a major crack though. My wife started noticing some flaking/ spalling spots in our new floor. These are some examples of the biggest ones. There are probably about 15-20 over the entire surface though. Talked with the builder...
