Time to paint the garage floor.
My garage floor is a mess and needs some help. My brother used this product http://www.armorpoxy.com/html/about.htm on his garage floor and it looks awesome. I just ordered a couple gallons. I'll take some before and after pics but I'll tell you what. It's going to be a PIA to do cause I'll have to move all my shit from one side ofthe garae and stack it on the other side, then paint the clear side, wait a day or two then move all the shit to the painted side to paint the other side, then after drying put everything back where it was originally. Looks like a good reason to take a couple days off work.

Otis,
I checked the site out the other day and it looks like a good product. I've got too many irons in the fire to tackle that project right now though.

hey otis...to make it an actual link instead of text...you have to add the brackets around it...
a bracket set is []
at the beginning of the link u need to have one set of brackets with "url" and at the end of the link another set of brackets with "/url"
hope that helps

Because you did not put the [url} [/url] before and after the link the same for Pictures [img} [/img] I had to change the ] to } so it would print out!
Otis, I wish I was young again and had your energy to do anything! Defying gravity in my chair at work and making it up the stairs at night is about it! Sunday, I treat the day like work and spend 8 to 10 hours doing everything that needs to be done (Which is a lot when the Newest vehicle you drive is 20 years Old) Peggy's Mini is in the shop from being Hit at the curb during a snow storm! I took it back for the last time and told them to keep it until they did everything !

You know Vinnie I said the exact same thing to my 2 year old daughter last night after she made the 15th trip running through the living room to the dining room then down the hall into her room then back again with the dog chasing her. How the hell do they do that? By lap #2 I'd be unconscious on the floor. LOL Bummer about Peg's mini, what hit it? A snowplow or another car?

I have watched Young people! They flat wear me out "Just watching" (I mean out of breath!) Do you understand about the url and brackets?
Good News and Bad News about the car. #1, someone actually saw it happen and told us at the time it happened. #2, We called the police on 311 at 8 PM and they were at the house on a snowy night by 8:15 PM not the usual 2 or 3 days later . The policeman knew Lee Shirts and had an engine at (The person that did RG's bike all year. I have no memory). #4, he hit the left rear corner and knocked the car 6 feet forward and 1 foot into the curb.
It bent in the left rear suspension and dented the left rear Quarter Panel. DId not even break out the tail light and every thing opened and closed correctly! A very tough car! I thought if you were sitting in the back seat and got hit? That the car would not stop until they got to the dash.
I had the car taken back to the dealer in Annapolis MD where the BMW Mini shop did the suspension. The Body Shop! What a Joke! Great paint work, but no details! and left everything missing off of the car! They even left the Inner fender panel off that keeps the stones and water out. It has been over 2 weeks since they got the car "This" time so by the weekend, I will be on them again!

Hey Backmarker...
I saw a thing on TV about the MuscleGloss once. That stuff looks awesome. I'm gonna look at the pricing versus what Otis is gonna use.

Expensive.....
Far too expensive for my broke ass!!! $300 to cover 300-350 sq. ft. , that's some BULLshit. Seriously it looks nice but no way I'm payin' $600 to make my garage floor "purdy".

FWIWHome Depot has 2 types of garage floor paint. The most expensive is some epoxy stuff $48 for 250 sq ft. Has the little paint chips with it too. The cheaper stuff is a solid color only.

Bud of mine did the Home Depot Epoxy bit. Like it alot.
BUt I'm kinda strapped for time to tackle a project like that. Plus with all the shit in my garage that would be a major PITA.
