More work Done on Garage

Well this weekend I painted the Garage and installed new lighting and installed a garage door opener. I still have to finish installing the TV on the mount and some shelves for the stereo. I really like the lights so far. I went from two 100 watt light bulbs to eight four foot 32 watt T8 Flourescent lights. I really like it.

Last weekend my garage looked like this.


Now it looks like this. Sorry for the poor photos but I just finished up about an hour ago.

Very nice... I need to re-clean my garage and do the floor the right way this time. Plus there are a few touch-up jobs the walls are in need of.

Lost Pup - No AC or heat. They are simply vents. I do have a few fans though

Tundra_Jim - You are looking at a cordless drill sitting on a battery charger and the other lump is one of my sandals.

MaThGr82, you have the garage that I want.

I bought my house and the previous owner had the garage floor coated in a dark grey. That make it really gloomy. If I had any options for storage of all my stuff I would like to recoat in a light colour to give the place a bit of a lift.

AutoNova is an unknown quantity at this point
Why did you decide against using the paint chips that come with the epoxy kit?
