Hello Garage fans, I have been without luck trying to fasten a flag pole attachment base to my brick wall. I am wondering if you can help. From what I've found on the net, I've been drilling into the mortar. I first tried the screws with plastic anchor sleeves the flag pole kit came with...

Hello everyone, I have a driveway that is about 1 year old. I noticed that last winter created some small craters where cars where parked (perhaps from vehicles depositing salt). I would like to protect my driveway. I believe I should apply a sealer. Since it's the driveway, I don't want to...

Hello all, I applied epoxy-coat over July 4th weekend and everything turned out well. This weekend (about a month from apply date) I rinsed out where my cars have parked. I noticed that during the rinse (and sweep) the garage smelled like paint. Seems strange to me. Is the epoxy reacting...

Hello all, I'm in the market for a new toolbox, and I've basically narrowed it down to two: 1. Kodiak (or Wen) Pro Elite 41"($449) http://www.homedepot.com/p/WEN-Pro-Elite-41-in-12-Drawer-Rolling-Tool-Cabinet-74412/203613299 2. Gladiator Premier 41" ($461 currently 30% off)...

Hello All, My plan was to apply Legacy's primer this evening (around 6pm start), and then apply Epoxy-Coat tomorrow morning. However, the weather has decided to act up, and it's going to be a low of 56 degrees tonight, and then high of 79 tomorrow. From reading different things on here, it...

Does anyone know if it is OK to patch first, prior to etching? I want to know if this is an option. I have started my epoxy project for this weekend, but cannot get one oil stain out (9 month old floor, one stubborn spot). If I can patch tonight instead of etch, it may buy me more time to try...

Hello All, Curious about concrete etching supplied by Epoxy-Coat (and etching in general). While degreasing my garage yesterday, I noticed that my 9 month old floor is very quick to absorb water. If I follow the etching instructions, I am to spray this stuff on the concrete and let it sit for...

Hello all, I've done plenty of searching, but can't seem to find a good answer, perhaps you can help. I am about to coat my floor with epoxy-coat. From other posts, it is not recommended to use the mixing stick for measurement. So, I have purchased multiple measuring buckets to properly...

Hello all, Just wondering if the type of squeegee is important. I'm getting ready to apply epoxy and came across a sale on a foam squeegee. I didn't buy it, and would probably go and find a rubber one... but I was wondering if it makes a difference or not. Thanks!

Hello all, Over the weekend, I did "step 1" of my epoxy floor project: Scraping. My new build had some splotches of dry-wall mud (paste) on the garage floor. I took a scrapper to remove it. The dried up paste was easy to come off, but I have two questions: 1. After scrapping, you can still...

Hello all, I'm about to epoxy-coat my garage floor, and though only 7 months old, the first winter was unkind to my new floor. There is some chipping by the expansion joints... that's easy, I know what to do (fill up). However for these small cracks that are not very deep (~1 mm, see pic)...

Hello everyone. I have a 7 month old garage floor that I plan to epoxy-coat in the next few weeks. I've been reading a lot of posts here and I am wondering if it's best to fill the expansion "gaps" in the concrete floor. I see a lot of people doing it, but I have some concerns. Those gaps...
