after months of deliberations of what to do with the office floor i.e. wood, tile, paint, stain etc. and after consulting with Scotty with Legacy Industrial I decided to go with 2 coats of HD6600MMA sealer with their Frontier Tan Color Bomb pigment added then paint a stenciled Buick logo with...

Before I started pulling vehicles, tools and materials back inside the garage area after finishing the floors I took the opportunity to take some shots of the place. Can't wait to finish all the electrical so I can rid the ceiling of all the ugly drop cords. I like long roofs....

So before I get to telling about the office floor, a couple more lighting pictures. added a couple floodlights to sorta accent the ceiling and under counter LED light bars

Thanks! Those are 38's with the hump trunks. Mine is a slantback. Model 44 2 door Streamline Sport Sedan to be exact :giggle: Thanks capn, me neither, been a long time coming... Thanks! Thanks mate. A bit more gloss than I wanted but dust should take care of that soon. She was a life saver...

Had enough material to apply a 3rd coat to the bay where most mechanical work will be performed. Each coat appeared to be shinier than the previous. I am wondering if perhaps the matting agent might loose its effectiveness after 1-2 days

Felt good about the 600 sandpaper look of the etched concrete, time to set back and let it dry for 5 days and nights of constant air movement before beginning application of the Legacy Industrial 6526MMA Sealer. I used a matting agent to take away some of the shine and give it more...

So with labor funds running low and my helper taking on another job, I enlisted the help of my wonderful wife for the next project. The floors. I had purchased 10 gallons of Legacy Industrial 6525 some 6-7 years ago and never had the right time to put use it. Scotty with Legacy advised that the...

That is awesome. Such detail! and for garage. Thanks for sharing!!! In reverse perhaps. The main difficulty I was having was the tie in of the vertical piece, compounded by the fact the widths of the chamfered pieces weren't all the exact same. 200-300 LED each depending on where more work...

Thanks, appreciate that Thanks Jay. Ambience.... I'll have to remember that word lol. Yeah, done with the floors THANK GAWD! Will be posting all about it, including the "fail". :confused:

Almost forgot, installed some of the brooder lights I’d been using as temporary lights in the welding and fabrication shed.

a few more period correct but repro explosion proof accent lights and rewired EXIT/night light

Some period correct interior accent lights An industrial style holophane and a vintage Crouse-Hinds Hall Light I have had this old hall light for as long as I can remember.

Added some air movers and a drop down electrical receptacle.

and finally, the Buick gods said "let there be lights" After painting them all in period correct cobalt blue, I rewired, installed new sockets and replaced the 2" with 12" pipe extensions. While I have cages for all the bottoms of them, my wife made the point that they would only...

Maybe we'll have a pot of Brunswick stew on the stove next time you're here. Good idea, but already got plans for something, stand by....

So got some trim up in the corners of the walls and ceilings of the office. Set the saw up for chamfering some trim off some of the culled pine 2x's Sanded them down Almost pulled my hair out trying to figure out cuts that would get the two ceiling pieces and wall corner pieces to...

Sorry to be so long getting back, but as you all know, life does get in the way some times.In this case this little life. Our second grand daughter, lil Lucy. So been spending some family time while still slowly plugging away at the garage. So where was I?............. I looked for...

So after some 70 views, and apparently no one having had experience with applying sealer over a logo and after extensively Google searching the subject, I just went with what I found the general population have done in their kitchens, porches and patios.... . Used a high quality Benjamin Moore...
