    Re: My Man Cave

    Do you happen to know what type of paint/epoxy the original owner used for the floor? I've been thinking about coating my garage floor similar to that. I checked out Home Depot but was turned away after seeing the same product get scrapped by turning your wheels stationary.


    Time to scrap down that popcorn ceiling. It's so 80's.

      Sweet setup! Very nice and organized

      But I would suggest putting some type of cover over your pads to keep things from settling on them

        I did the floor. Got it from Lowes. I used the Quickrete grey epoxy, with the clear. I know it's not the best, but it works perfectly fine for me. I made sure to do a lot of prep work, and it sat curing for 7 days, as opposed to the recomended 3 days.

        The ceiling will be done soon. That is one thing that has been bugging me from day one! But that is a very large and MESSY job! Need to make sure I have a good week to complete it(I also have a few hole to repair in the ceiling).

          I clean my pads before I use them. Not recomended by Meguiar's of course

            Looks like it still needs a good polish though.


            Yes it does! Why don't you come down here and take care of that for me j/k, it really needs a paint job. I'm going to clean it up a bit, but there is so much paint flaking off of it, it really need to be resprayed. Maybe this winter I'll tear it apart and paint it.

              When I'm not working on cars, and everyone is doing their own thing, I like to play games. She loves for me to play games in the garage

              LOL, my g/f was always giving me a hard time for playing video games at 33yrs of age...then I bought a Wii and I couldn't get her off that dang thing for months!

                    That is a sweet set up you have there. I would be spending 80% of my time out there also. Looks great.

                          I want to buy her that exercise game (not sure if it's even a game )...that way she will stay in better shape!

                            Good idea! If I tell her it would be like working out, then she won't want one

                                That game would be on the shelf, getting dusty after the first day. Money wasted
