    Looking great 👍
    You’ll need to eventually end up with the tiled floor, make it look like a proper VW workshop, I’m already getting the same vibes with the colour scheme you’re going with.
    The consistent Sunday AM vids are great.

    @philtucker1224 Год назад +5

    Dan, if you’re going to keep the kitchen door where it is, I suggest you put a window into the end wall that faces into the workshop. There will come a time when you’ll have a second person also working in the shop and you will want to be able to observe them whenever you choose. Blind spots in a workshop isn’t a good idea for any reason, especially accident safety.

    Great progress!! Looks amazing. Look up a company called Watco. They do all sorts of paint type products for floor repairs and coatings. My garage floor didn’t have a membrane underneath and I had an issue with rising damp through the slab. Bought one of their paint on coatings and it created a waterproof membrane. Well worth the money!

    Can you buy a bag of concrete at your local store and spread it in the floor of the 2 rooms you built? See how it looks? Those rooms won't get the weight of a car so I'd think it would be ok.

    • @DanChambersDAC

      I have already laid screed in the toilet and kitchen areas so the floor is flat to be able to lay vinyl flooring over.

    im conflicted with the grooves in the concrete - i know it will get traction and allow water to settle in the low spots but man - anything you roll on that flow with small wheels is going to be a nightmare - at least thats how it seems from my end of the pond - i guess with the lift you wont need to roll around on a creeper much but not sure what your thoughts are Dan and internet

    Not cheap but I think I’d of gone down the resin floor route instead of paint…..it won’t take much in the way of a spillage or vehicle movements to damage your hard work and need for regular repainting……a resin you’ll only ever do once.
