The prep work can be brutal on that stuff. We had it done on the attached garage and it had lifted, twice. They ended up having to grind the entire floor and redo it. Currently I am looking at racedeck type tiles. They have a wood grain tile now that looks pretty cool.

That turned out nice!

I want to do a home depot floor, polished concrete and sealer.

This is the attached garage.

We had to end paying a professional to come in and grind the floor before we applied the epoxy. The etching solution that was provided with the kit didn’t do ****.

It’s not perfect and I would do a lot better if I had to do another one but it works for us. Did it for $900 instead of $2,200.

That **** looks good, especially when you grind down enough so the aggregate shows.

That looks awesome

Theres a couple good flooring companies that show their products on garagejournal. Some really nice looking stuff out there these days.

There’s some good companies around here too. The problem is they all like to broadcast so much flake you can’t see the base color.

I like it but some of the clear seems to be getting a bit hazy. not sure if UV bleaching or just getting screwed from the winter salts grinding under tires.
If I have to grind it off to make it look good, Im going to go the route of taking it down heavy with the grinder then sealing it. From what I hear if it gets screwed up, you can just add more sealer and it wont look patchy.

I like the look of flakes but I hated them when I was turning a wrench on it and dropped a black screw. couldnt find the bastard lol. That led to me looking at the polished concrete look.

The manufacturer of the epoxy I bought told me that if t ever got hazy you can just wax it and it’ll come back.

Ill have to look into that. That would be an easy fix.

mr. madwi, im gonna start looking for a TV for the garage... it would be perfect to get it before the BBQ..

I ordered an access point for out there so we will have good wifi. Ill setup something to run the comcast app to stream from the net.

Since you complain if its not apple, I have it setup for ipads or phones that use lightning cable.

wow, a 15 yard punt :icon17:

I don’t know where they found this punter and Ehlinger looks over matches. Need to go to Shane.

For how many years we generated first round pick o-linemen, it’s painful to not be able to block.

By working around the house. :icon14:

I plan on working on some whiskey, likely a bourbon variety.

I did it to my garage floor when I first moved in. Mine is a mess now from kick stands of motorcycle, jack stands, floor jacks, welding, grinding, fabbing, etc.

I keep several pieces of 2x10 to put the jack stands on to prevent that.

:bowrofl::bowrofl::bowrofl::bowrofl:

Ten mile bike ride with the wife this morning. I'm so out of shape!!! She is out of shape and just leaves me in the dust....humbled I am, girls rock!!!:owned:

I never complain, mr. madwi. :ugh:

I'm naturally happy.

I did that for the jack stands, and pieces of plywood for the bikes. But when fabbing up metal parts for 4x4's and other stuff. Dragging heavy metal across the floor didn't help. :rofl2:

If I even build a new garage. The floor will have metal chips in it. When I worked at Elliott. The 100,000 sq ft. shop had metal chips in the floor. That was one tough floor.

My mt bike is sitting in the basement with 2 flat tires. Haven't had it out this summer. :shakes head: I need to get on it. Same for my motorcycle. I only had it out once. :mad:

Weekend repZ. :tiphat:

I am good at being grumpy and complaining. Just comes naturally. :icon17:
Now get the **** off my lawn!

I found a tv wall mount in my junk pile, itll hold a 65" no problem. :tup:

Hey Bob,
You can borrow my bike, I've done 100 miles on it.

These pics are for ghostvette

Very nice I have a Specialized Roubaix. My wife bought it for me for my birthday. She has the female version. I need to get in shape before one of those century rides. My wife did a century ride this summer around Lake Tahoe.

The Roubaix has a nice relaxed geometry, good for long distance. A century is a bucket list item for all cyclists. Tahoe must have been fun for her (except for the altitude).

:yum: $$$
What made you get a Ridley?

Went to check out a Z not too far from me for Ghostvette. After coming back from the test drive, I saw a couple looking at a black roadster. When I was done talking to the dealer, I notice the wife standing outside and the Z was gone. Her husband was test driving it. I asked if she liked the roadster. She was very excited, said YEAH! Pointed to mine and said "I was asking the guy if we could see that one, but he said thats a customers car"..lol. Ended up talking to the hubby for a good half hour. Yeah, theyre gonna get a roadster! lol

Flat towing behind a motorhome.

Yep, figured as much. When I popped the hood, a big bundle of wires, then that cable on drivers floor, then it all came together when I saw the tow bar thing up front.

Yep, we have friends that own a bike shop here in town that went to Tahoe with and the three of them did the century and the other eight did 72 miles. My wife was very excited about her accomplishment. She was like I will do another century but not this one lol!
