Thanks for the information. Great work and a wonderful idea.

As I look at all these great garages, and plan the finishing touches on mine, I'd like to know what you guys recommend for lighting. I'd like something really bright for detailing, polishing and waxing. But would also like to have alternative, lower level lighting for when I'm just chillin.
All suggestions appreciated.

Go with Cree LED lights for bright detailing light. Use some sconce lights for chillin'

Thanks! It's Behar concrete stain from Home Depot. Each kit covers a 1 car garage and costs about $200 including the color tint. You can get just about any color you can think of.

Great looking garage , The paint looks amazing on the Grand Sport , My 2015 NRB is loaded with orange peel especially on the sides . I had a 2008 black Mustang GT convertible, the paint was excellent .

I have another couple days of work on mine but here's the progress. Installing race deck. Walls painted. Need to finish the racedeck and then a few cabinets go in. Looking for some cool Corvette decorations (I have a flag so far). The third stall houses my off season vehicle. Same racedeck. Stalls separated by a 3/4 wall.

I have one of those two (40 gallon) just could get it in the shot plus these photos are a wee bit dated since I started doing a lot of the trim work since I took these.

I do a ton of restoration work on older muscle cars, so clothes, rags, other get pretty dirty so the washer & dryer was my wife's idea so I didn't have to use the one at home for all my shop tuff.

Wait, in that last pic it looks like he cut his ceiling off to fit the lift in there and you can see the rest of his house. Am I seeing that right??
