Have you had a chance to check the slickness-when-wet of that floor coating yet?

Not yet, no. It should not be that bad though, as its a fairly rough finish. We havent finished yet, thats only about 1/6 of the floor :lol
That is one impressive `garage`!

Heh heh, I sure sympathize with your doing *that* job! Just watching the guys do my floor was hard enough
Hah, it wasnt bad really, just lots of prep work. Took a full day of just prepping the concrete. Got it finished today, and I`ll try and take some pics when I can. We didn`t use anything for traction, they left the floor rough when we had it done so that we could put this down and have traction.
I say it wasn`t bad..but I now compare everything to sheetrock work, and it makes it seem that much better. :grinno:
Heh heh, with all the work you`ve done I suppose it all gets relative after a while

Got the rest of the it finished :2thumbs:
And yeah, it was deffinately all prep work, coating the floor only took a fraction of the time it took to clean it!
Very awesome. It`s huge. You can never have to big of a garage. You both should be proud.
Oh, my God, I`m so invious!:cooleek:
Wow just wow

You`ve done some great work there! Congratulations! That right there is time well spent... and even better, time well spent with your dad!
Enjoy the compliments and more importantly, enjoy your garage!

Been a while since I have had any updates, just nothing exciting going on. We got on of the two side garage doors installed a few weeks back, waiting on some hardware to come in so that we can put the other side in. We`ve also gotten a lot more shelving put in, re-organized things a bunch, and generally just been trying to move stuff in.

Oh, and heres the detailing cabinet (not pretty..but effective)
Sorry its a huge mess right now, but like I said..we are still trying to make some sense out of the place.
:heelclick
Sweet, man I love the space.

thanks for the update!!
I remember, when the thread first started, thinking .....How will they fill all that space up? With all the items that are in the space now, I wonder how much space does a person need. When first posted it look so cavernous. With all the items on the wall and in the work area it appears to be just what it is ....a great space!! I am so jealous:wavey :LOLOL
