As I understand it, it's an epoxy paint with a "polyuria" coating. My floor was finished in 2014. There have been no signs of cracking/peeling or scuffing. The floor is warranted against cracking/peeling etc. I had a local company do the application. They arrived in the AM, was finished by 5PM...

Those tools look good enough to eat..........just saying...

I solved that problem by having the guys who coated my floor cover the 5.5" base molding, as well. It creates a waterproof barrier between the floor and wall. I thought of a rubber cove base until they suggested this could be done. BTW, pardon my dust.......

Yeah, I shoulda, but, just outside of the garage door was this... So, I'll shrug it off and get out the touch-up and polishing tools.

Hey Guys.....MaxJax update Initially took more time than I thought to drill the first of the required 10 qty. 7/8 x 5.5 holes. It seems my Milwaukee hammer drill just wasn't up to the task. So, I used a Dewalt SDS rotary hammer drill with a 5/8" bit. It made easy work of the remaining 9 pilot...

Well, related to my post regarding installing my lift...... I purchased a rotary hammer SDS hammer drill off Ebay. The result of which, was able to drill two 7/8 x 5.5 holes in the concrete floor in less time than it took to drill one....LOL! Am a happy cave owner....

I've owned a Sanborn, small horizontal since the late 90s. Still running....Not a big name player, but, still a player....

Since we're talking lifts.......still drilling holes for my MaxJax. Only 7.5 to go......

Thank you, this link was most helpful. Should have thought to check with the manufacture. Happy Trails.......

I use an old clothes hamper from my grandmother's house. Works good, but, for the clean ones only. The dirty, are usually not recoverable, so they are trashed. I use a lot of paper towels when warranted.

Hi, It's the initial install..... Also, their instructions suggested holes 5.5" deep. The insert is only 4" plus an additional 5/8" for tightening to clamp. Why the difference do you think. It's tough enough boring through hard-**** concrete an additional 1" that serves no apparent purpose...

Mine was on the center ceiling beam between the two parking spaces. When I enlarged my garage. I moved it to the center wall between my dbl. garage doors. Thus far, has been a good location.

Hey Guys, Am in the process of installing my MaxJax. For those that may have "been there done that". Is there a torque value for the 10 pedestal bolts? Will check with MaxJax next week, but, thought I'd ask here. Happy Trails....

SK makes a real nice line of hand tools. I purchased my first set in the late 60s. They are still in use.
