Garage Makeover...Ideas Anyone?
#16
Yeah, man, if I had your garage I'd burn mine down...
I will definitely insulate mine, but not until I hire huckersideways to rig me up some more outlets and better lighting. In the meantime, I see Rona has a sale on the Rustoleum floor covering stuff, so I might pick up a couple boxes of that.

Haha thanks guy. It's actually my parents garage, I just hope I'll have a garage like this at some point in my life I'll be buying most of the stuff needed for the garage. I'm really the only person who uses it for something other than storage so it's only fair.
New garage doors are being installed next Saturday. After they're in, it's time to get started. First things that I do will probably be running cable out there, running compressor hoses, and doing the insulation. After that, I'll probably do the epoxy. Swivel, I've heard that Rustoleum can sometimes have problems with hot tire pickup. Just a heads up. Also, make sure you use a 2 part epoxy (Rustoleum is). Check out garagejournal.com. Lots of ideas and great information there

Okay, so I did a quick measure and calc to buy the Costco Motofloor stuff (like Racedeck, made by the same company, I think) and for my 19'x20' garage it would be $1285. And that's 25 bucks a box off for each of the 8 boxes I would need, plus a finisher pack to do the entry bevel.
That's nearly ten times the sale price of two boxes of the Rustoleum stuff. Wow.

Not really off topic at all, I've often thought a guy should be able to fasten (screw? glue? Two-sided tape?) solid insulation to the inside of the garage door panels. As long as they're beveled so the door will open without interference, should work, right?
Might look kinda funny, but that's where you get creative, I guess.

^I think that's more or less how it's done. When I was on Google trying to find insulation tips, I came across a lot of links about how to insulate a garage door. There were even some videos too
Does anyone know an electrician in the Hamilton area? We've used so many in the past and have yet to find a good one.
