OTD garage build!

[OvertimeDetail]

revamp my garage and inventory a bit.


I never thought of it becoming like this! as my collection was growing, I had to find spaces for it. My collection was simply everywhere in the house. and Im tired of walking around the house to grab something I need. enough is enough!


So now I have the garage to myself!! My focus now is to make my garage look more presentable...

I don't know if I should install some lights before or after painting the roof. I probably go with same light I'm running now , but add 2-4 more.

I looking for some epoxy white paint for very top and sides, some light gray on the bottom 1/4 on the side, light gray epoxy on floor also and a orange line around the garage.

any recommendations?

More to come!

Wow amazing turn around! Thats a garage you can be proud of. I think this should be in the "Show and Shine" section lol

[Matt]

Very nice.

I'd say install the lights after you paint the roof so you don't have to try and paint around the lights.

[Rav777]

Nice turnaround! Looks more spacious now!

Have you considered using track lighting for the garage? You can run the tracks and add a good amount of high intensity light bulbs or go the LED route. That would be sweeet! :xyxthumbs:

This shows what a little time, organization, and good plan can do for you. Quite a transformation from the old days! :props:

I would install all the lights first, this way everything is in place. Holes, mounting, wiring, etc. Then remove the fixtures to paint. This way you won't have to worry about messing up the fresh paint or the fixtures.

Looks a whole lot better OTD

I straightened out my work area last month too! It was a disaster

[OvertimeDetail]

Thanks guys! well I don't think I will wire any new lights in just yet, town has to approve it. but I can plug some lights in, just not tear the roof down and wire new lights.

here are shots with my car in it.. garage needs some painting badly, just waiting for the next detail to be completed.
