Should be getting the floor in late this month or early next. Single picture update with finished paint job:

I just looked at these over the weekend and they seemed solid and reasonably priced. Nice pickup!

I was quoted $3.75/sq.ft. for 440sq. ft. ($1,650) full chip pro series: https://www.rocksolidfloors.com/systems Plus the contractor has a separate guy come in for $450 ($1,650+$450 = $2,100) and prep with an industrial sized riding blaster and hand grinds all corners. Check out my floor link...

Well I definitely have a plan for the wall. I am going with a Dark Grey/Red Stripe/White Wall Pattern. Something like this: I based my decision off of XcYZ's thread.. it will be a mini version of his! Haha! http://www.garagejournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=45022 I am having the floor...

Looks great Jim, I have to say your walls look way better than mine, I didn't feather out enough on some of the joints and they "sink" in. Will be re-mudding. Thanks for the painting tips!

Thats what I thought! Thanks! Yeah that is what I planned, I like the versatility. Something to be said about being able to move things and re-arrange things to your liking. I'm actually going with this product most likely...

Probably the last shot before the floor gets put in. Finished priming and put some of the lights back up. Trim and additional painting next.

Wondering if GJ members get any sort of discount!?! Heh Heh!

It sounds like you are talking about grinding your floor when all you may be looking to do is scrub and polish? Agreed with Legacy, we need more info!

Probably the most informative video's I have seen on proper prep of a concrete surface. Hats off to these guys. I am currently trying to figure out what level of prep I need for my floor and this helped a ton! Check it out! Acid Etching Deeper Concrete Surface Prep: Grinding & Scarifying Just...

First off: :bowdown: Secondly: Way to rep Minnesota. Thirdly and legitimately: How did you build the overheads? I am thinking about doing something similar in my space. I have seen this concept in multiple garages and must admit its functionality/uniqueness intrigues me.

Hey, I am pretty much in the same boat as you man. Check out my link below. I have a three stall garage: 1 stall is/will be a heated and finished workbay/drinking bar room, the other 2 stall is unfinished. I have a thread in flooring titled: "To hire or not to hire". I was battling the...

This makes sense. I don't have the original plans for the garage, but the house (built in 1940's) had a driveway in the front going alongside the house to the garage. The original driveway is now my yard and long gone and it is now accessible through an alleyway which makes me believe a portion...

just out of curiosity, how does something like that happen? Also, this is the grinder he would be using:

This is the seam I was referring to just so you have a reference for what I am looking at. The rest of the floor has minor cracks, dings, etc. Normal wear. I think I will heed the warning and pay for the prep, still deciding on whether I want to DIY apply.

Just wanted to quick thank you guys for your input. I got everything figured out with the 3-way. And the switch that controlled all the ceiling outlets; I just ended up re-connecting all the outlets so the power fed all the way through the lines again.. not sure what the term is for that but...

I have no doubts about his capability. The reason it is cheap is that it is his connection, thus he would have to make the call to schedule. He said if I wanted to do the epoxy application myself that he would walk me through it, again I'm not sure if he would charge for the insight haha. If I'm...

So, I am about to epoxy my floor. I was originally looking to hire out, but after reading and researching while comparing rental prices for prepping with a grinder/scarifier I may end up doing it myself. Who has grinding experience? Reason I ask is that I have a seam in the middle of my floor...

Totally awesome expansion man! The real question is where did you put your stock certificate?! GO PACK GO!

UPDATE TIME! So.. I should have the walls and ceiling fully primed by the end of this week! Not sure what finished color I'm going to end up going with. Next step is to have the epoxy put in. Will put in the next update when that is finished! Going through the drywall process has been...
