It's a full flake epoxy floor. It runs up the concrete stem walls.

now I all I need is a garage!
it was a toss up, getting divorced did allow for the purchase of mine '09 'vette, but at the expense of losing my garage.
so far, it's been a fair exchange.

The garage and car look great!!!

In a working man's shop, I've never been able to get my head around a speckled/multi colored garage/shop floor, only a solid light colored gray makes sense to me! For a display area only, go for it, speckle away! : )

i didn't mention it previously, but that is a nice clean layout.
one thing though that did not occur to me initially, not until tomdatoolman mentioned it.
while i do like the look of the speckled floor ( will hide dirt & the occasional auto fluids better than bare concrete ),
it would also tend to hide smaller dropped items too.
still, i would probably go that route. does a nice classy look.

Yeah, I forgot to mention why the preference for the light solid floor color in a working shop, my old eyes need all the help they can get finding those dropped parts! Even my anti-fatigue mats can cause problems and don't get me started on the saw dust! My shop is for furniture & cabinetmaking! : )

That garage is sweet. Here are some pics of my garage. Epoxy floor, cove base, crown moulding, beer fridges, stereo, etc. etc. It is where I spend all my time.
