24:18 Heavy duty ceramic tiling. Epoxy you only 2 one time in your life, when it breaks swopping it out is complex, unless you simply choose to pour more on top.

We need the poll to see what the people think about the floor!

bro, i love those low profile ceiling lights. We used them when we did our basement build out and it was so convenient not having to run those big lighting boxes up in between the joists. Glad to see your progress. Cheers!

[@SplitBuilds]

Thanks bro! I love those lights also!

I noticed the garage spring wasn’t covered. A pair of vice grips, a 12pt 3/8 drive socket, and a 12-14 steel round bar. That’s all it takes to remove that spring. But honestly. You should drywall over the bracket as it is.
If you put drywall under that spring play it’ll crush the drywall over time. I installed doors for 5 years. It’s not wise to put a spring bracket over drywall. Putting drywall under the track isn’t the best idea either. But I’m guessing you’re not in any real severe weather (hurricane) zone. I didn’t see any wind bracing on those doors. So it’s not a big deal.
Love the content brother keep it coming!!

Thanks for the advice

You do need to clean the garage floor, even if you're going epoxy. I honestly would recommend using an abrasive disc on a floor sander. It will make very quick work of the paint and spackle leftovers. If you've had any surface cracks in the concrete that can be felt by hand, it's also not a bad idea to do a quick fill with some Quikrete before you run the floor sander. It's a small amount of work up front that will give you a cleaner appearance in the end, especially if you end up with a glossy finish to the floor. Be sure to throw some plastic up on the walls when you run the floor sander. They have a tendency to send crap flying every direction, which could mean potential touch-ups on the wall afterward.
After the sanding, a quick wash with a neutralizer will help to prevent any contaminants from getting in the way of the coating having good adherence. It's not as big a deal with epoxy coatings as it would be if you were doing an acid stain on the concrete, but again, it's such a quick and easy step to do that it's worth it just to be sure.
I've done quite a bit of flooring work over the years and it just pays off to do the little extras up front rather than having spots that disappoint you after the fact, many of which cannot be easily corrected once the floor finish is in place.

That’s what I was thinking

[@Lakota238]

Everything seems to be coming along nicely, I’m happy for you man!
Not gonna lie though, I can’t wait to see what’s in store for the humvee 😁

[@jeffo3253]

You Da Man Split!

[@davetarr7257]

Clear a spot in that garage, I’m bringing my hummer over for you to do a duramax swap. 😂

[@SplitBuilds]

🤣

[@davetarr7257]

Looks like hood shade matches x strips on doors, are those also fiberglass? Definitely two different shades though.

[@SplitBuilds]

Yeah, they’re both fiberglass which explains it. They just take paint differently.

[@hollisterduder4u]

glad your back!

[@ryancrosson26]

NICE!

[@diyjeff1838]

Here we go!!

[@korn111685]

Did the x make an appearance?

[@SplitBuilds]

Nah

[@hunterstrickland5496]

Driver side passenger door looks to be the same color as the hood.

[@SplitBuilds]

They are. I understand that metal and fiberglass are going to take paint definitely I guess that’s what happened.

[@blanksender7808]

I thought you fell off the face of the planet.

[@SplitBuilds]

🤣

[@sunda5094]

Hummve your not for end...
