    Re: ***Oakes' Shop Build***

    Your facility looks amazing. I'm sure your customers are happy to see the company is growing. A nice, clean shop should go quite a ways for you as well. More space, more work, more employees, more profit! Keep up the good work!

Also the week long downtime for them to cure before driving is a big factor too.
    Look into Polyaspartic coatings. In the epoxy family, but with some HUGE advantages namely you can drive on it within 24 hours, 4X's stronger than epoxy and it does not fade from UV. I did it in my garage and love it!

    Your shop is gorgeous man, just gorgeous!!

    There are plenty of updates, just haven't gotten around to posting yet. The drywall is all up, wiring all done. We've just been swamped with work - no complaints - so the painting and finishing touches are still to be done. I've got 12 cars inside at the moment and the "cheapest" one is a heavily modded 350z next to a Lotus Elise. Don't want to get any paint or dust on the R8 or CL65 in the corner! haha

    Definitely looking into that. I think I'm going to coat the floors in here because we wont be moving out of here until we find a much much larger building to buy or have built which is a few years out even if we started now. Thank you!
