Garage Project

So the garage project is nearly complete. So its time to post some pics.
First the before:
for some reason i dont have pictures with it cleaned out after we moved in, The colors were Smokers White (aka was painted white but was smoked so much in there that the walls turned a yellowish) and Pink cabinets and trim: YUCK




Now the after:
First Repainted the ceiling white, and did the walls grey and trim/cabinets black. Put new hardware on the cabinets (a brushed aluminum look) and new door handle.
Phase two was the epoxy floors. I prepped it as well as i could with etching fluid and scrubbing the hell out of it and keeping it clean throughout the process. Filled all the cracks with cement filler.
I then taped out the Mitsu Symbol on the floor adding an inch to each side for overlay (thanks andrew (asshanson) for giving me the calculations the other day )
Then started mixing a gallon, I did a dense Black White and Metallic flake with the grey base, and after that was good i started doing the third stall to not waste the paint.
Waited 2 days and then finished the rest. The rest of the floor is a black white and blue flake with grey base and loosely sprinkled.
Overall i LOVE the outcome. I still have to put the clear coat on, which should make it totally shine and give it a water look as well as smoothing out all of the lines and sealing everything in.
Enjoy!
