Naw that's VCT (vinyl composition tile) in your kids school. They have been removing VAT (vinyl asbestos tile) from schools around here since the 80's. Unless you work with it, you can't really tell the difference just by looking at it. Even though VAT was a much better product and more...

Don't know if this has been posted already, but I thought this was pretty cool:thumbup:

:lol: Actually that's what I named one of my sleeper cars. That's how a came about that name. A 4200lb 4 door family Impala that will embarrass most cars on the street;)

Cool. It's going to be the fastest built hospital in the country. From the ground up. The main office building and the ER will be done June 1st and the hospital completion deadline just got bumped from November to July for completion. While still maintaining quality in craftsmanship and...

Awesome build! So is this near Lake Sammamish? The reason I ask is, I have bean spending the last 4 1/2 months working on the build of the new Swedish Hospital up on the hill in Issaquah. And not a day goes by where I catch myself in a window enjoying the view of the lake and the surrounding...

To save everyone a ton of time in the future, here's a little secret. VCT comes with a cheap wax just for a preliminary protection on only one side of the tile. So all you have to do is install the VCT upside down. (Yes it will bond). Now you have raw tile facing up and ready for any top...

Nice setup:thumbup: Any more pics of the toy's?

Just type in VCT* with the asterisk and you will get every vct topic on the forum

This guy might be able to help you:D

I was just in our warehouse yesterday, and the truck driver was loading and ready to deliver 15 pallets of ceramic tile. The tile crew is one of the best in the area. You will be amazed at the progress once these guys get started. I am looking forward to seeing this upon completion:thumbup:

Spread the entire area that you think you can do that day. Let the glue completely dry before starting to lay any tile. A fan speeds up the dry time 10 fold. P.S. Also snap your chalk line before gluing. Spray the chalk line with some clear. Don't tell your wife, but hairspray also...

Of course Mr Leno gets to test one http://www.jaylenosgarage.com/video/clips/2010-mercedes-benz-sls-amg/1182154/

Just tell Mountain Const. to do a extra good job on the slab, because I will more than likely be doing the floors:bounce:

Nice thread:thumbup: The coolest thread since Utah997 bunker garage build.:beer:

Yes you will want to scrape off as much of the loose epoxy off of the floor as possible. Than I would take rented a floor sander (The buffer type) and sand the entire floor. Clean it up, then put a coat of floor prep on the entire floor. (I prefer...

Cool thread:thumbup: Keep us updated on the remodel. And the Z is sweet:beer:

Very nice write up and a great build. Very well said:thumbup:

Not only cheaper, but better IMHO

:thumbup: Yes it is to control the squareness of the tiles. If you where to lay a row at a time you could get runs or what we call box cars. Which is square gaps where 4 tiles intersect. Because no floor is perfectly flat, so you have more control of keeping your tile square with the pyramid...

Even though it is recommended to install at certain temperatures. I would install at a slightly cooler temperature than warm. The reason being is, with cooler temps the VCT may want to sound as if the floor is making a cracking or popping sound for awhile as you walk on it. That is because...
