Only wishes...

Nice, very nice.

One thing, is that enough lighting when the door is closed? I only see two over head fixtures.

That looks awesome Josh! It was probably posted but I missed it if it was. What did you use on the floor?

I am sorry that I missed this thread when initially posted but have to say that I enjoyed the thread very much. I also have to say that I am very envious of the whole space.

Congratulations on the complete body of work!!

Thank you all for the kind words

Rob- Ooooh yes that is enough lighting to light up the space. I will get the specifics from my brother, he is an electrician and these lights are the brightest white you can get and the ones bodyshops use. I mainly use these lights for lighting and then I have two dual halogen stands I move around the car.

Bob-I used the Epoxy found at Lowes called QuickKrete, it took 2 boxes and out of fear I put it on a little too thin. Because of the salt and all the abuse it took in the past year, I plan on recoating this spring with another box.

That was one rule of mine to my dad, he couldn`t leave his workbench in there. It was originally right in the dead center of the garage on the back wall and I wanted that space open. Sooo he was forced to move his workbench out to his shed out back where he does all his wood working and projects. Plus...Im not much of a handy man so the only good it would do me is to hold my pop

or give me an excuse to bring my laptop out there and stream real time my detailing sessions haha

I just built a work bench in my garage, thats why i thought about it.

Even if you arent handy a work bench is worth its weight in gold.

Im starting a thread on it today when i get home from work.

Bob - You need to get your eyes checked. :p Went back and looked at the pictures and because of the sun and shadows I could see how you thought that lol

Coupe- Looking forward to seeing your thread!!

**MorBid** · 01-03-2007, 11:24 AM

Nice setup Josh. It must be a dream to have such a sweet spot to work in where everything is organized and you have easy access to.

I gotta get up of my butt and do something w/my garage.

My brother-in-law is a commercial flooring guy. I keep thinking of having him throw down some flooring in my tiny garage but I am not sure. My garage floor is really old, pitted, and not that level so the water off the car from rain and snow goes all over. I was hoping with a laid in place floor I might be able to just squeegee the mess out.

Very nice !!! My wife would have a hard time getting me out of there
