    The Milwaukee addiction thread! :)

    I got the Milwaukee addiction 40 years ago building our first house. Lately been getting into packouts and battery powered tools.

    I put down epoxy-coat (with paint chips) 19 years ago in my 22x20' detached workshop. And some kind of urethane? topcoat that I can't remember the brand. The epoxy-coat has held up extremely well. I did have some yellowing under the tires of my riding mower. Maybe due to the topcoat. I've...
