Epoxy-Coat contest Part 2

[rugerlady]

Ok, here goes. We have had so much fun with the last contest, that we are going to continue it.
This is just for videos. You can use one from the previous contest or put together a new one.

The winner will receive our premium polyurea clear coat (up to 500SF kit)
runner up will receive the premium polyurea clear coat (up to 250SF kit)

This will be running from today until May 31.
The winner and runner up will be determined by the amount of views it gets by midnite EST on May 31.
If anyone has any questions, ask away.

FYI, for all my GJ members that are video challenged, I will be having another fun contest very soon..so start planning your stories!

 

[xrdad]

Can winners of previous contests still apply?
Not trying to be greedy, just asking...


Any videos?
rules or hints?

ssathre really got me last time... I'm looking at a couple of options and now that I'm 'in the groove' so to speak

Yup we are still in it. Looks like I'll be finishing my summer blockbuster after all. Muwhahaha!!

 

[rugerlady]

Anyone can apply, previous winner or not.
Hints....something good about Epoxy-Coat.

 

[xrdad]

Well ssathre.... I have a 1/2 kit that I could wager...


NOT!

 

[xrdad]

Wow, did this ever turn quiet..

Bet ssathre and dd564 are 'too' busy putting down their full kits

Good! Means more for me

Oh Christine.... I'M BAAAACCCKKKKK

Why is the floor important? Just check out me in the video...

We recently converted our garage into a play area for my 1yr old and my wife would love to have a clean floor for him and his new sibling in 9 months. I would love to have a garage floor that doesn't make his clothes dirty and to allow his sister(fingers crossed) to crawl on so that they can play.

but you really need to read the entire thread in order to pick up on all the inside jokes. dd564 really did a good job and had me on the ropes for the rest of the contest! seriously funny stuff!

sorry I was out of town and wasn't on the site much. only had my handheld for Internet access... i hate typing on that.

slab just got poured today and my winnings showed up as well. now I have to wait at least 30 days... probably longer I'm sure there will be more delays in construction.

I'm still waiting for my creative juices to come up with a newer fresher idea. In the meantime, I'm hoping this was keeps me out front for this contest!

Since I'm leaning towards black, the clear coat would be a beautiful thing.

doh! I just gave you another view.

 

[dd564]

doh! I just gave you another view.

Made you look!

Congratulations on the last contest. You were a very worthy competitor who forced me to go the extra step.

right back at ya!

hey I saw you are leaning towards black. very cool. for the better part of a day I was set on hi gloss black with glow in the dark flake. ended up talking myself out of it... I figured if I ever had to sell the place, a more popular/common color would appeal to a broader group of people. I thought hard on grey as well but a few of my buddies just did their floors in grey so I wanted to do something different.

 

[xrdad]

ssathre, dd564...

don't go counting formek and I out just yet!
To be honest, I felt bad about the whole mistress thing and 'let' you win

But I'm not going to hold back this time! Maybe Christine will consider Team sports next time Formek and I will kick ...
So yeah, you got another view on that old movie (****.. did it again on both yours and ssathre )

So game on gentlemen! I have a 1/2 floor so far.. maybe I'll two tone my shop? (on a separate note, your video skill are great, oh wise ones.. )

Do or not do.. there is no try....eh?

 

[formek]

I am not sure if I will be a contender. I am video challenged. I will keep looking for some thing to do

 

[xrdad]

FORMEK!!! We got tough in the battle and now you're wimping out in the war?!!

C'mon! These boys already took home the goods and it's our turn now! Giddy'up!

 

[formek]

lol OK OK I will see what I can do.

 

[xrdad]

I'm posting this in both threads.. New contest and part 2! (not on purpose.. just got mixed up in the mad rush to get this done before the 31st)




Formek was to have a floor coating party, but due to some weather issues and the better half not feeling so well, it was cancelled.

On my way there though....

[xrdad]

dd564

so????

did you go with black? where are the pictures???

(hmm.. maybe better start having less coffee.. )

 

[dd564]

Haven't ordered yet. Probably will next week. Thinking Tile Red (which looks Maroon) with gold and black flakes. (golden gophers)

 

[rugerlady]

Looks to me like xrdad has the most views on his video!

 

[jonesdz]

Runner up?

 

[rugerlady]

DD564 has the second most views.

I will publish a "formal" winner list shortly.

 

[dd564]

Wow. Thank you very much Christine!

 

[rugerlady]

You guys are so welcome!
I have a question for you guys too...the next contest, I need ideas. I am thinking I will give you all a list of words and you have to use them all in a story, preferably related to floor coatings (we did this before too). What do you guys think, any fresh ideas??

 

[xrdad]

Christine,

it would be nice to have more people involved in the contests. I think of Formek, dd564 and ssathre like my brothers now , but it would be nice to find something that more could participate in.

I like the idea of a word contest... I'll give it some thought over the weekend on something either fresh or a spinoff of the word contest.

I want to say thanks to you and EPOXY COAT for these contests. Whether I got the most view or not, I had fun (read felt like an idiot) doing my shoot and learned a lot about some neat software. If I won, fantastic. If I didn't, I still feel like a winner.
