C&C, you have nothing to apologize for. Many like this guy have only made one post with a bunch of links (spam) to screw things up and never came back. How were you to know that this wasn't the same situation. You were only doing your job.

Now I'm glad that njogre came back and hopefully to help out everyone in the future.

Welcome to the forum.

Nice garage

Mine would look like that except for the fact I have to
store my wife's "stuff" (and her stuff is not tools)

Oh yea, how slippery is it when wet?

It sure looks good. I have been thinking of painting my garage floor. I looked at the Epoxy paints. I cannot afford them right now, since my garage is 36 X 50. It will take a lot of paint.
The directions do not call for it and I did not do it. I did not prime either but the directions ask you to. Hopefully in a couple of months I will not be regretting that minor detail

I did my garage floor about 10 years ago with Rust-Oleum epoxy floor finish. It was about $120 for two kits and it's holding up pretty well. And we have put that floor through everything. Good stuff!

That translated to about $300 for me. The last epoxy I looked at was approaching a grand. I may give it a try.

The key to it is the prep. Don't skimp on this step. You can have the best epoxy in the world, but if the surface isn't prepped properly, it will peel just like the cheap stuff.

Nice cabinets! Good color selection! It perfectly matches the interior décor.
Cabinets are indeed great additions to garage. I own a garage123 24 gage red wall cabinets with a meatl thickness of 0.023 inches. These are lockable and the doors are framed in black. Fits well with garage décor!

Nice try smithleed. This is a warning! Welcome to the forum, Daniel Wood
