Absolutely, when doing home renovations I went through several different paint brands and definitely stuck with Sherwin Williams.

Oh yeah I’m going all in on this one! We have a few high spots also and with the new metal roof, I can’t paint over the edge. So lots of scaffolding and latter work.
She’ll only go for that one once. So I’m saving it

Fuck that. I’ve done that and hated every second of it. Came out half assed too. Paid a pro to do it the next time around and it was amazing. Yours looks good though.

You must be sitting in your garage, smoking a cigar, admiring your work. As you should.... looks good.

Lol. Thanks for the encouragement. I've watched about 5 years of YouTube videos so I'm officially certified.
Honestly, anything is better than what we had. I repaired the large cracks months ago. We degreased and acid etched it on Wed and left heaters running for two days to make sure it was dry and warm. I told my wife this would be a several day project. We took it slow. And honestly for 150 bucks, it is what it is. I don't think we could have prepped it any better so if it peels, so be it.
I looked into the professional stuff as well. I could watch those videos for hours, very satisfying. They do sweet work. But very time-consuming and $$$$$$ with some of their stuff.
I am looking forward to walking on it with socks and being comfortable laying down while working on the Jeeps.

I wish. I am enjoying a cigar though. Can't walk on it for over 12 hours. And drive on it for 3 days. Going to be a painful few days. Then I gotta move all my shit back in too.

No shit... I figured the Epoxy dried faster that. I like the blue chips.. will go well with the WJ & JT. [emoji1417]

This was a 2 part epoxy mix, but it was really basic and cheap. Other epoxys may dry faster :idontknow: . But it was drying visually pretty damn quick. Concrete was 82F and I would roll the epoxy on and my wife was doing the chips. At first we were doing row by row and it was drying too fast for the chips to stick, you could actually see the color difference. So we stuck to 4' x 4' squares instead of rows. I'm still going to wait a few days to drive on it. After all that work, I don't want to risk fucking it up.
Me too. I wasn't too sure with the blue at first but I told my wife the same thing. Perfect match for the truck.

That looks great. You’ll love it. It’s nice to be able to sweep and mop it and actually have a clean garage floor. Our garage had it already when we moved in, I’d love to do it to my shop but that would mean I would have to move all the crap out.

I hate painting
Worst thing about it is the preparation. Also the most important. Funny how that works.
Did I mention that I hate painting

Fortunately when you take the time, it’s not a project that needs to be done often.

I can’t wait for this project to be done. Should be finished sanding tomorrow. I’ve been doing most of the caulking along the way. Then on to the primer cote.
