    Garagedeck under Kwiklift?

    I am getting the garage epoxied. However I have a Kwiklift (most of you probably know what this is) and don't want to set it directly on the floor because I'm concerned that it'll gouge or scratch the epoxy. What do you think about using Garagedeck under the feet of the Kwiklift? My thought...

    New epoxy floor being done next week

    I chose Austin Epoxy Floors to do the work. They use Arizona Epoxy products. Weather permitting, we'll do this Wed-Fri next week. This will be a diamond grind, base coat, flake to rejection, clearcoat. Color should match the existing wall color pretty well: "Before" pic:

    Rubber flooring for inside of race trailer?

    Looking for some rubber flooring for the inside of the box on my open race trailer. It's probably 6-7' wide and 3' deep. Would prefer something heavy enough to lay in place without needing to be glued or bolted down. Purpose is to provide slight cushioning for stuff that winds up in there...

    Anywhere in/near Austin where I can see a Racedeck or similar floor installed?

    Need to pull the trigger on something for my garage floor. Would like to see Racedeck or similar flooring installed before I go down that path. My biggest concern is the feel and the noise of that floor. Just haven't ever seen one installed. Anyone in Austin who wouldn't mind having me over...

    Possibly OT: Water heater problem

    My electric water heater is on the fritz. Unit is probably 5-7 years old and looks to be in good shape. The water temp will increase beyond where I would expect it to be given the thermostat setting, to the point where it kicks off, then I hit the reset button and it starts all over again...

    About to pull the trigger on either RaceDeck or GarageDeck: thoughts plus a question

    Thoughts on whether the Racedeck is worth 50% more ($3 vs $2 per foot) in a typical residential garage? Also, I can't think of a reason that I wouldn't be able to pressure wash the flooring once in place, but is there a reason I couldn't? Finally, imagine I have a partial tile at the edge of...

    Love my house, but the garage has only 8' ceilings, meaning that I'll need to lift my vehicles outside on my (level) garage apron. Anyone aware of portable, mid-rise scissor lift that will take my 7700 lb Excursion in addition to my other, smaller cars? I haven't been able to find one via...

    Quick questions regarding VCT and snap together flooring

    Trying to figure out what kind of floor to do in a 750 or so s.f. garage. I do minor maintenance and repairs (oil changes, brake jobs) in this garage from time to time. a) will VCT stand up to oil and brake fluid? If I spilled some of either I'd clean it up quickly. b) same question for...
