Finishing the Shop
Well, after many years of staring at insulation, vapour barrier and wall studs, I finally got the motivation to finish the shop. I used white steel, im happy with the look, just some window trim to go now and some fake stone or something to go around my "fireplace"/heater.

Re: Finishing the Shop
And that's just the top floor Paul.....the showroom. He has a beautiful garage and one we would all be envious of. I've been lusting after it for years.tacky1 wrote:Fab setup, Really nice and clean...

Re: Finishing the Shop
Your too kind.
this is the 2 story garage 26x40', just after we built it. Its cut into a hill so you can ride around the back and load the top floor
the back door to the top floor
Garage #2, just after completion, 36'x72', used for the farm equipment, my truck and a few toys

Re: Finishing the Shop
Fantastic set up! That really looks nice. Thanks for sharing.
What finish is on the floor (looks like plywood flooring)?

Re: Finishing the Shop
Yes the upper level is plywood with 2 part epoxy coating. Ground floor is concrete.

Re: Finishing the Shop
Very nice. I always wondered about an epoxy coating on a wood floor - looks great!

Re: Finishing the Shop
Thanks. The Epoxy kit comes with some optional additives too. You get some granular non-slip additive you can mix in (i used that on my stairs), and it comes with these blue/white/black flakes that you throw on the wet epoxy as you paint it on the floor. Looks fantastic....But.....now that i did that, if I drop a small nut or screw, it takes me for ever to find the damn thing (I hadn't thought of that at the time).
I had regular garage floor paint on the floor before. I will say that areas where the old paint wore off, the epoxy does soak in alot. So if you were to put it on a new wood floor, you'd want to put a sealer coat of something on first.
