Thumbs up My weekend garage makeover
It was a busy weekend, my wife and I spent Saturday masking off the walls and painting them. On Sunday we stripped, etched, and stained the concrete floors. Installed stainless outlet and switch covers too. This is our 4-car attached garage, hope you like it. It is sort of like my display case for toys now, all the wrenching goes on in the shop out back.

It looks killer... Now time for more lighting. RC can handle that I would think?

Very nice. Cool color choice. I am sure RC would be glad to add some lights.

RC wired up my shop. It is bright enough in there to get a suntan. My garage has plenty of light, especially since it is just for parking in.

BTW, that red is Cranberry red. Same color as my Chevelle

Black garage floor is a MOTHER to keep clean... I have one. It sounded good in my head but a year later I'm kicking myself.. Shows tire treads, Scratches, etc.

Looks great tho.. Nice work. The lines on the walls are bad ***.
