I've posted these before. They might give some ideas for their remodel -









Why two TVs? I can't see the top one while working under a car on the lift

It has heat, AC, Direct TV, stereo, speakers built into the walls, compressed air hoses hanging from the ceiling, hot and cold water, floor drains, 7000 and 9000lb Rotary lifts along with a TV room and computer room in the back. There is a fridge, Microwave, leather couches and a bunch of other stuff back there. I just need a bathroom to be able to live in there

nice garages. what are you folks using to paint your floors and are you doing it yourself?

we have a new home and the builder wanted $3000.00 to apply the enamel finish to the garage floor. i am thinking of doing it myself.

thoughts?

Looks Great.

You got some big cans there.

All for garbage or floor sweep.

I used 2 coats of H&C Acrylic Concrete Stain followed by 2 coats of H&C Acrylic Concrete Glaze. Purchased at Sherwin Williams for around $300.00
