Very nice write up. Thank you very much! A similar write up along with a very nice and professional products related to car detailing can be found at this website: http://www.detailedimage.com. I am in no way affiliated with it - I only used it recently to buy a bunch of things from them and all...

strange.. banned??? after more than 7 thousand posts? I wonder what the guy must have done to deserve the ban:)

I'd like to add some on top of the original question: how soon can seal-coat be applied to a new asphalt driveway?

You are welcome to take a look at my, recently painted, garage. Light blue with a stripe: http://garagejournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=112823

Totally agree with all who say that waiting a year is a BS. But this is how their warranty is written and guess what - I accepted it when bought the house. I understand the rationale behind it - they don't want to waste their resources for every single, normal and expected crack. But as some...

Truly appreciate your (and others) advice. I just realized that I forgot to mentioned that the drywall is a bit bowed - which to me indicates that the crack occurred due to some movements. Normal settlement or not - I do not know. But you are saying that my idea with screw will not work. I...

I am fixing a few corner cracks in my new house before painting the rooms and hope I can get some professional advice here. Yes, it is not in the garage.... but this is the house with the garage attached:) hope it can qualify for being here:) Here are some pictures. I think what I need to do is...

Thanks all for great advice. I wish I posted my question before starting driving screws last night. The cheapo regular phillips screws I picked up in homeDepot camout even with me predrilling (perhaps I applied more torque than needed?). Anyway - I stopped and will go and buy some SPAX (or...

I saw SPAX in homeDepot yesterday. They are a bit more but not by a lot. I guess I've got extra few bucks for them... unfortunately HomeDepot closed 14 minutes ago:):)

What is the general rule for driving a #12 (2'' or 3'') screw into a stud - pre-drill or just screw it in? Hanging some shelves in the garage and appreciate an opinion of a more knowledgeable people in this area than myself:) Thanks guys.

Ha-ha:) yes, you got me:) But the very first post by OP is actually titled , so I naturally though that "storage" is ok to talk about here as well.

Guys, I see a lot of cool, creative, and some really expensive ideas for storage. I do not have a lot of tools: I do not repair cars or anything like that - just a regular home owner with a limited set of tools/things to organize in the garage. I wonder - four pages of ideas and noone (unless I...

freddyaudiophile - that's a great idea. Thank you very much. I didn't think of the frame obviousely:) having a frame, especially with the mid-support perhaps makes this installation more rigid than frameless? Will wait to see how Jared did just so I can compare. Where can I buy all this...

Jared (redman43) - amazing work! I cannot even imagine how much time went into planning all that:) I have a question - sorry if it is a stupid question; I am new here and perhaps not as handy as most of the guys here. I have a similar size garage (20x20) and just finished painting it, here are...

I also bought all the supplies in HomeDepot. Not sure if it is considered cheap or not: Behr Primer for Drywalls and Behr ultra white paint: 5 gallon each. Actually I even had to buy extra primer- 1 extra gallon. Behr Ceiling paint. Here are the pictures with problem areas- not a lot, but still...

Thanks to all for the suggestions - but I decided to use flat on the ceiling. I was concerned that semi-gloss will show all the imperfections of the drywall and taping and with me not being a professional painter it would only double the problem:) Here is the end result - it doesn't show the...

Thank you all for good advice and information found in this thread. Finally finished painting my garage. It was totally naked - just an unpainted drywall. Covered it with primer all around, layer of flat white on a ceiling, two coats of semi-glass white on the walls, and finally 3ft. blue bottom...

Hello everyone. A new member here. I found this forum in search for some garage painting ideas. I searched this forum a lot before finally posting this question and I am very sorry if it has been discussed before. A regular two car (20x20) garage, new construction home. I just finished priming...
