cheers! no not really any online references - I do any sort of motorsport fabrication and engineering. predominately headers, aluminium tanks, arms, cages, that sort of thing !

bit of an update on my workshop build since the last time! Among a million of other smaller jobs ive done that would be too much to list, the main job was to diamond grind the floor followed by epoxy coat. In the mean time i have sheeted the ceiling of the machine shop in plasterboard...

interested in the answer of this too !

10 gallons!!:eyecrazy: we dont really get volume stuff in stores like the U.S, first time i went to Texas i felt like honey i shrunk the kids with the size of the stuff i could buy. :wtf: id say the biggest amount of that i could get here is half a litre and that would have to be from a chemist...

thanks for the tip! il give it a go on an area and see how i get on! The grind wasnt all that bad, but SUPER slow. the workshop is just about 2000sqft and it took 2 full days, (9am to 9pm or so) but im pretty happy with the results!

Thanks for the reply - so you would just recommend more vacuuming - brushing - vacuuming until it gets as clean as possible?

Hi Folks, I think i know the answer to this, but il ask it anyway in case there is an alternative. I diamond ground my concrete floor last weekend in prep for epoxy coat. I vacuumed up as much as i could with an industrial vac but there is still find dust embedded in the concrete, and when...

can you not go to a fuel station and pump and much kerosene as you want into a can where you are? thats what i do, its crazy cheap. 500 litres for 180 euros

yep, Kerosene

saw cut right where the door stops and get rid of the 2 inches of floor, or just clean up the edge i already have?

i was going to leave them separate for expansion, and sikaflex seal the joint??

sorry guys i added photos from imgur but they're not showing up

hi guys, Im looking for some advice on the following. in the next couple of weeks i will be pouring an 8m x 3m ramp/pad into the workshop, to join up to the garage floor photo'd below. i have taken away the top footing block, for the new concrete to meet the floor. Naturally at the moment...

thanks for the suggestions - I was thinking about the wall base trim, but it works out really expensive. @machsnell - could you possibly link to the sikaflex you are referring to please, there are millions of types after aquick search. many thanks !

Hi Guys, im wondering are there any suggestions out there for making a floor to wall joint more asthetically appealing while also taking away the problem of it being a dust trap. i plan to epoxy coat the floor and up to the top of the first block, so id like to put a nice transition from the...

hi Folks, sorry i've been away for a while, i really appreciate all the suggestions and comments, many thanks! Shortly, il be tackling this project, and i was just wondering what order would be the best to do this? What i want (ideally) is a flat smooth crack free epoxy floor. The floor is...

6c, feels like sub zero with wind chill, lashing rain and driving winds for the last 3 months

thanks, it surely was a lot of work, but im happy with the result. @930dreamer - its not beautiful when its raining windy and cold 95% of the time :rolleyes: id much rather be in texas right now!

cool ok, thanks for all the advice guys. i would have insisted on more cuts had i expected this outcome, but of course, i had naively left it to the 'professionals' which i dont normally do. I am also led to believe by someone i was talking to recently, that its never too late to cut another...
