I have finally got round to clearing all the junk out of my garage . So i need some inspiration to make it smarter.
Looking at painting walls white , getting new flooring,
Thats where my ideas end, anyone got any picks of their tricked up garages ?

Painted floor, plenty of lighting if you can detail in there. Rack out the back with plenty of storage, or use old kitchen units so you can have a work bench. A radio and beer fridge :signLOL:
An old automtive car signs to put on the walls.

There is a garage section on detailing world mate, have a look at some of those for inspiration, I am very jealous of some! :drool:

some good dens there fella's. Maybe we should have a thread just for this, recently moved and have some big plans for the new place

As above I spent a few cold nights painting bricks. It doesn't cost to much, it can be done for a few hundred

Of course it doesn't help if you change the colour of your car and then have clashing colours. :rolleye:

wish I had a big garage like yours Brett :sad1:

Mines bigger :signLOL: but I need to paint my walls and floor in the future I think. I can get 3 cars in mine parked side by side so making mine look smart is something I need to do I think

I painted my walls, floor and fitted 3x 6ft strip lights.

Its all about the prep. I vacuumed my floor twice. Mopped it twice. The floor was newly scraped, so I didn't etch it. However, the first coat was diluted with 10% water. Then 2 additional coats. I just used ronseal diamond hard garage floor paint. No peeling so far. Important to let tyres cool a bit first.

really wish i had a garage
