Lets See Those Cars and Mancaves/Detailing Studios!

Hey guys,

Long time no post, still been busy with detailing during the spring/summer. Planning on renovating my garage this spring for the upcoming detailing season. Picked up some VCT tiles for dirt cheap from Lowes. Just wanted to see what everybody else's garage/detailing studio looked like. Theres tons of threads on people product collection, how about their garages! Post up, and hope you guys are all doing well.

Don't have many pictures of just the bare garage, but here is a random shot of the evo/garage while trying to figure out how much rubber I can fit under there. As you can see, tons of clutter as we store random things in the garage. Hoping to clean it up with some cabinets in the near future. As for the wheel set up, ended up fitting an 18x10 +36 wheel with 275/35/18 starspecs under stock fenders. Can barely fit a business card between the tire and rear trailing arm.




Some inspiration to get working on the garage! Got this off a garage forum, love how the sprayer bottles are hung so neatly


Lets see yours!

 

Wow!!!

 

Enjoy...its a long thread but well worth it to go through and check out the pictures..hes continually changing stuff. A lot of detailing related stuff too

I have no words.

 

Makes detailing tough.

 

Epic, garbage cans on top of garbage.

 

This would be my work in progress

 

and just think, there is a Subaru in there somewhere.

 

Haha I was just thinking about what I want to do in the garage this spring. Renovations sound awesome but I have a major lack of motivation to do it.

 

let's just hope that whatever you may need is up front where you can see it... time for spring cleaning.:doh:

 

Ok, no more screwing around. My next step is to pebble tech or polish the concrete and seal it. I wash cars in here with the door down, and love the slope so the water just runs down to the gutter. No real pooling.
At this point its a total hassle to pull everything out and paint, but eventually I want to do that, or line the walls with that PVC sheeting you see in restaurant kitchens


Lots of walk around room, I can get that suburban in here no issues.

 

You can Wax the concrete as well, just plan on using a lot of it.

 

Got a really good deal on VCT tiling that i couldn't pass. Lowes cleared them out for $.21 down from $.85. Got to the checkout, and the cashier rang it up at $.08/sq ft. Paid $64 for 810 sq ft of VCT tiling.

 

^^^ damn.

 

FTWWWWW! jeez man nice!

 

Yeah, haha really lucked out. Just need to figure out a paint scheme, and get started on renos! Waiting for some better weather too!

 

I signed up at garage journal, what an interesting forum!

 

Here is my shop.. well just the office/lounge/showroom. Work space is too dirty to post up at the moment....

 

^Love that! Post the work area when you get a chance!
