Garage Floors

All,

I have been working on my garage, shouldn't it be as nice as the car?

Anyway, the floor is drying and I love it. Why does it snow in Virginia in April when I have my floor installed? Will post pictures soon.

Here is the link of who I worked with: http://www.epoxy-coat.com/

Lots of good info on this site but a very confusing layout:

Here is a site that most people use: http://www.ucoatit.com/

That is water based.

Looking good Fred! That's a good idea to keep to the hoods safely out of the way too. Some good lighting, fresh paint and a few Z's will go nicely with the new epoxy. Heck, if there was a fridge and a LazyBoy, I'd move in!

Another way to add lights that work well is to use el-chepo desk laps. My mother uses them to help light up the displays at her glass shows, so I borrowed them last winter (6 of them, 8 would have been best) and this allowed me to light up the whole car and really get see what I was doing. They attached to the top cross-members in the garage.

Here are some pictures, adding new electrical outlets, additional lights.

and painting over 35 years old dirt!

The 3rd picture shows the flakes and texture of the floor.

I am proud of the hood rack in the last pic.

Fred,

That looks great! Is that the U-Coat It product? What did you do for floor prep?

Hi Fred:

The floor looks great - now that you have the experience, the next time you are down, we can do mine.

We used that product on the showroom floors at the Datsun Dealership - and on the warehouse floors at Base Supply on the base. Very durable stuff.... a little slippery when wet.... but very easy to clean up...
