Default Big fun in a little garage...

This is the other small garage where we worked on the cars. In 1968 we completely rebuilt the GTO, including new paint. I was 19 years old and had never taken a car apart. I was a pretty good amateur bike racer and our team coach was from Italy. On days where I wasn't on the bike, my coach, Marcello Mugelli and I would work on the car. We had a lot of fun and I learned how to build engines and do body work.
I also have to give Marcello all the credit for teaching me how to drive. In 1970 I dropped out of cycling and had a good run in IMSA racing, all thanks to Marcello!
The second photo is from 1982, when I took the car apart again.

Amazing what qualifies as good garage space in NYC. It was funny because the garage manager started to under-sell and steer me away from the spot I was asking about due to advanced notice/difficult accessibility. We weren't understanding each other. Finally, I showed him a picture of the RS's: he gave me a thumbs up and said "perfect spot!"
Barricaded like Fort Knox.

^^I just noticed that your garage used to be my background on one of my tablets. Didn't know it was you. The funny thing is I am also considering going from an all white garage to all grey

I believe an M is a must have, no Matter the year, the use, or the tune is made on 👍

Still an all white stable but will likely let the GT4 go for an Agate Grey 991.2 GT3. Unless I can get PTS for Volcano Grey

Default Cleaning Epoxy Floors

So how is everyone cleaning their epoxy floors?

Mine look great when clean, but when someone pull in with a wet car the water just sits... I'm good about squeegeeing immediately, others in my family (i won't say who) are not.

I'm thinking about getting a commercial floor scrubber, but also got to thinking about the iRobot Braava mopping robot. Has anyone tried this in their garage? I have a couple Roomba's around the house that work great. Could let the thing run every other night and just forget about it...
