It's quite functional. There is a sink by the tire rack with hot/cold running water and a pull-out hose so you can wash cars over top of the floor drain. The work bench has pull-out air, nitrogen and power. The floor under the hoist is dead flat for doing alignments but the other side is slanted towards the floor drain.
The utility room behind the stairs has the floor heating boiler, air compressor, roll-in tools (like engine hoist) and hot water heater....
Lots of cupboards so hopefully the clutter stays out of sight....so far that's not working so well

Yes you are correct it does make it slippery , just something you have to keep in mind ..........

Thanks! Vinyl done by some graphic artists who have some great Cayman track cars and a few early 911s in their stable.
