My Garage Remodel w/floor epoxy (56K Warning)

Well Ive always lurked on this forum for ideas with my garage, and ive been spending quite a few months getting it right. The garage floor is about 300 sf with the cutouts. 2 5 gallon tubs of plaster on the walls, about 4 gallons of paint, 2 100w incandescent lightbulbs replaced with 5 fluorescent fixtures with 2x80w cool white bulbs each, installed a pegboard, a new insulated door, a new soffitt to hide all my date cables (every room is wired for tv/int/phone, all runs to the home server center you can see in the corner), floated the floor and finally had it sanded and epoxied. It still needs the cove molding installed and some other odds and ends. Ill take pics once everything is back in (2 motorcycles, workout bench, washer n dryer). Unfortunately I dont have pictures from the very beginning before I plastered, but believe me the walls were all like the one behind the workbench. Enjoy!

The leveling compound seemed to have worked well.

That's what I was looking for, thanks for the heads up. For what most people were insisting on doing I could pour all new concrete.... It's for a small, old, stand alone garage anyhow.

Mine sees light use. Prep the floor right with the latex, get some fortifier for the mix as well. I hit mine with a hammer after letting it cure a week, nothing happened. It should be fine for the use it sees. I had mine sanded before it was epoxied to get it super smooth, it ended up turning out like glass. I do believe the Quikcrete resurfacer cures harder then the LevelQuik.
