I have had both Epoxy and now the tiles..... I will NEVER do the tiles again. Epoxy is the ONLY way to go in the garage.

Looks great. But just wait
Yeah but knowing Afshin, he can and has the will to keep it clean.

I do! I'm planning on adding a four post lift within the next couple of years. That will give me the room I need to store all three cars plus the kids toys.

Keeping the white clean will definitely be a pain and I don't expect it to be easy. I've already found that porous plastics clean very easily with Griots Interior Cleaner and mild scrubbing. I figure if the floor looks bad in five years I'll take out the white and either replace it with the same or maybe a different color. Alternatively I may go with epoxy but so far I really like the tile and the look it offers.

thank you
It's a slightly oversized three car garage with 11 ft ceilings. I have four sets of fluorescent fixtures, each set contains four 4ft tubes to create an 8ft length. I added four can lights above the Spyder to help me see any swirling or scratches. It's plenty of light for what I need although some type of neon and a tv would make it better.

Hi Marine Blue. Sorry to revive such an old thread but it seems your acct isn't allowing/accepting PM's so just wanted to reach out and ask if you were at the SD GO Cars and Coffee on Sunday at the Cabrillo National Monument Park. If so, I was trying to meet you as I was looking at the cars but then I saw you driving off so it was too late.

Apparently Rennlist banned him and other users and mods over some sort of dispute. It’s a huge loss not having Marine here anymore.

Oh wow. Didn't know that. Crazy that users and mods got banned. Must have been something really serious/bad. Thanks for letting me know. He should just sign up under a new name.

Apparently a number of mods complained to IB about the RL politics forum getting out of control and IB banned them all. There might be more to the story but Marine is 100% a gentleman and a huge resource of Spyder knowledge. The rest of us suffer for the consequences of IB’s actions.

At the risk of being banned, IB should close and delete the politics forum. Lots of other places for that. Rennlist should have the best porsche experts. We lost way too many from the politics forum purge. Good porsche guys just said the politics forum was crap. I agree.
