I already have a Touchpad. I'd prefer a full-fledged computer.

Got home today, and the bottom layer needed ANOTHER coat of paint. Also, the trimming needed work to fill in some spots where the white undercoat was showing through a little.

The 3rd coat went on easily/cleanly, and was done in no time for the most part. It was also nice and dry out today, so the paint dried quickly - I think I waited 2-3 hours max and I was able to peel off all of my painters tape in the garage.

The separation line is clean with VERY few spots that bled at all - I don't think I'll be doing an intermediate stripe to clean up the line. Not for now, at least. Also, the bottom layer with the good 3rd coat looks good.

The paint is far from perfect overall, but I'm extremely pleased with the final results considering much of it was a learning process for me anyway.

I also took time to wire up my new switches and wall sockets, with the diamond plate covers. I'll take pictures of the completed paint with my shelving installed tomorrow.

Which stuff? Just the epoxy, or are you doing the wall paint, too? Don't forget Lowes/Home Depot give 10% off for mil...

epoxy and wall paint! your garage looks almost identical to mine :tup: and I didn't know they gave us a 10% discount...

I didn't either till I went to Lowe's with Rob.....and then went to Lowe's with him again a few hours later........and then another Lowe's.......then back again a few hours later........and then back again one more time :rofl2:

Oh god, Lowes' discount is the most amazing thing ever. Downside? You need to ask for it and they have to get the head cashier to come over, that can take time, sometimes. Tell them right off the bat you'll be getting a discount so they can do it while scanning items.

Don't buy online, unless you just ship to the local store and/or its cheaper overall including shipping...

Anyway, in other news - I absolutely crashed last night from exhaustion practically, so I'll have to get completed pics tonight, when my shelving is done.

This thread has motivated me to finally get my project going. I need to buy a shed first to get the lawn equipment out. I suppose I'll do that this weekend...

It looks great so far, in for finished pics :tup:

I'm buying some tool chests this summer. Gonna make my dad go with so I can use his discount. :icon17:

:tup: That's what I do!

sadly the closet lowes is 106 miles away in bismarck...so I am looking into ordering online... OR roadtrip :p

I'd probably call and make sure you get the discount somehow...might take some copying of your ID.

Home Depot ALSO gives the discount, so...

we have a menards in town...

Getting ready to build our garage-planning a full lift for the Z ( i have the best husband ever:-) i'll be checking back for cool ideas that we can adapt (if thats ok w/ you)! Looking good-thanks for the thread!!

Bobo, congrats on the new house! and having a garage is the ultimate bonus!

lol Bobo, I don't mean to bite your style, but we are doing light/dark grey like you did too... LOL just looks great!
