I finally found some time to get back to the garage floor project. The second section is just about ready for epoxy. Since the last post I overfilled all the saw cuts in the second half with self leveling urethane and sanded them flat. This is the second garage floor I have done this to and like...

Here is my B-day present from a few years back from Da'Wife.

I was just on the QCAAF making sure that was you. I plan on making it over and checking it out. Always thought an old firehouse would be cool for a shop. It is so Ghostbusters!

Very cool building.

Very inspiring….. After looking at this I have to go work on my garage.

Got the first coat of clear on this morning. Very happy with Justins spreading of the flakes. He has it down. Just a pinch and trow it up in the air.

You have done a nice job with the garage and it is so cool to see how you use it. That's what it's all about.

There will be a 4 post lift for car maintenance and storage. More for the maintenance aspect since I don't enjoy rolling around on the floor like I used to. As far as decorations it is all about muscle cars, and auto racing.

It's been a busy 2 weeks prepping and laying down some epoxy. Can't wait to get the clear on and then do the other half of the shop. Almost ready to move in!!!!!

Why go to all the work and take the chance. 2 coats, you'll be happy you did.

I heated my last garage with a 10.000 watt hanging furnace that I got from MSC. (Search for then online) It worked great and impressed anyone that saw it in action. This had no problem warming up my 730Sqft garage and keeping it warm.

It is called tiger striping and is caused by the chemicals in the tires. It shouldn't happen if they used a Hi perfprmance urethane. Known as HPU.

The sales manager at a a local contractor supply house recommended Stego vapor barrier. He said poly film breaks down under concrete and within 5 years it turns to ****. The union concrete finishers agreed that Stego was the best product available. Note because all the moisture has to come...

The work shirt is the one for me. XXL tall for me.
