Default What have you done to your C7 garage lately?
I am in the process of upgrading the area in my garage with red, white, and black garage tiles. Last year I completed 75% of the garage floor. I am now in the process of completing 100% of the floor. I originally had a red stripe 24" wide between the two vehicle garage.

I am now in the process of making a 24" red square around both sides of the garage vehicle area.

I will post other pictures as soon as I complete it by tomorrow.

I love these garage threads. I look forward to more pics guys. I need some ideas as I figure out how I'm going to do my garage. Right now my Garage doubles as a motorcycle restoration shop and Corvette hotel. Restoring a bike is not clean work so no beautiful flooring until I decide to quit doing that.

My garage?

Used the indoor/outdoor vac to blow out the dust and a couple of leaves....
...the Tubi exhaust on the Ferrari thrilled a bunch of kids walking down the street, but the Vette must have still been sleeping
as it growled at me and the kids laughed.....

What I did was cleaned and did the yearly maintenance on my lift which is almost two years old now. I love these garage threads also!
There is this forum called. The Garage Journal Board ( https://www.garagejournal.com/forum/ ) that I always check out! Lots of good stuff on there!
