I added a little more lighting and a new 2 ton minisplit. Tired of sweating like a mad man in the garage when working on the cars.

I have Montana plates on some of my cars. But, if you are ever in the NYC/NJ area let me know, you are welcome. I live in NJ for some stupid reason.

How do you like the minisplits? Your cars are phenomenal!

I know the feeling, I just paid $12K just for the porcelain tile in the garage portion, not including the rest of the space, bathroom, mezzanine, labor, grout, etc

Swisstrax.

I just went through the same thing down at my new shop in Paso Robles. It was a 900 sq' addition to an existing 3 car garage and the best quote I could get for epoxy or polished concrete was half again more.

I went with Swisstrax and I don't have any association with the company. In truth I haven't installed it yet. But it has a lot of advantages as far as I can see; no risk of media failure, easy to replace. That was good enough for me. The fact I can install it myself (and maintain it) was just gravy. Ask me again in 5 years, but on spec, it looks like the most economical choice.

Just an opinion.

Scott.

I went with the ribtrax overall, but it front of the bench I used the rubber trax (can't remember the marketing name) under and in front of the bench about 4 feet. I spend time at the bench and having a tile that's forgiving of my now ancient leg muscles is a plus! The rubber version only comes in black, for me that isn't a problem.

I'll know a whole lot more in a couple months but right now it's looking good!

I'll send some pictures?
