Garage Refresh
 
5 Attachment(s)
*Gay Thread Alert*

We moved into our new house almost a year ago and whilst I was over the moon to have a double garage there was something niggling me regarding the CSL's resting place: the huge amount of concrete dust ever present no matter how often I swept it clean due to the concrete/breeze block construction.

So, I decided to spruce the place up by painting the walls and garage floor whilst maximising storage for the CSL, car stuff, bikes, running machine and other assorted bits of shite that I had accumulated!

I used the following:

Sandtex Stabilising Solution & Sandtex Ultra Smooth Masonry Paint for the walls.
Sandtex Stabilising Solution & Johnstone's Garage Floor Paint for the floor.
Kenovo storage tracks to hang the bikes and garden tools.

It ended up taking longer than planned as I work away from home a fair bit, but I am pleased with the results! :smokin:

Looks good! Bit of paint makes all the difference. I can't wait to build my garage.

Lovely garage, far too much non-car related stuff in there though for my liking. When I am in charge I will make it against the law to put more than 5% non-car related stuff in a garage. It drives my wife nuts but I just can't stand it.

Nice looking car too :)

Good job Rob

Just a warning, hot tyres will most likely pull off the floor paint as its not a two pack system so drive her in when cold.

Looks as though he has put some mats underneath the tyres for that very reason :).

I am the same - I despise clutter, only cars are allowed in the garages LOL:

Don't worry; the eaves storage is full of CSL bits and wheels! My missus already thinks that I'm nuts for spending any money to paint the garage in the first place and would think I've lost the plot if i turfed out her 'gym', lol!
