I have a 3 year old concrete path, driveway, etc. that I’ve never been happy with. Concrete was grey and had same day acrylic sealer. Decided to colour seal it (higher solids acrylic with tint) and never had any luck with long term adhesion. Yes, I cleaned and used another product (compatibility...

In the process of building a dog kennel (3m X 3m) for our new family member Brittany Spaniel. Prepared the site Thursday afternoon 30th March, poured concrete Saturday 1st April and left it covered in black plastic for a fortnight. Watered it frequently during those 2 weeks. As you can see I'm...

I'm going to apply a tinted/coloured Aliphatic Polyurethane coating to a small exterior slab. The slab isn't the prettiest and I would like to hide some flaws as well as give it some slip resistance. Are flakes/chips UV resistant? Below is the coating I will use...

Concrete & shed (9m X 7m X 2.7m high) went down in June 2015 but since the block is in a new area and full of dust decided to hold off putting down a coating. Now that we've moved in and other houses are around I took the plunge and purchased my coating system to apply this Easter long weekend...

Haven't posted for awhile as I've had nothing to contribute until now. Sold family home May last year and moved in with parents while we started building our new home. Obviously the new house will require a new shed! I was originally going to do a 7 X 7, but upgraded to a Garage World kit 9 X 7...

New floor jack arrived this morning. It's a Compac 1.5T-HA. There made in Denmark and are significantly more expensive than the Chinese models, but this will probably be handed down to my grandchildren. http://www.calfinn.com.au/images/stories/pdf/Simple%20Jack%20Brochure%201%205THA.pdf

Had a big dust storm last month which gave me a good reason to clean out my shed. Never really liked my off white floor colour as it showed every dirty foot print, etc. It did have it's benefits of reflecting light and finding nuts and bolts on the floor. Anyway, decided since everything was...

Can't find it on the SO Aus or US site. What model is it & what's it worth? http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=320264544045&_trksid=p3907.m32&_trkparms=tab%3DWatching Might make a trip to our nations capital if it's a good enough deal. Cheers, Jon

Came across this site today. What can I say, I'm in awe of some of your garages, sheds, workshops and projects. Once I stop salivating I'll post a pic of my 7M X 4M shed. Cheers, Jon
