    Pictures of your Garage and Tesla(s)

    We hired a painter to freshen up our garage. Once he saw the Roadster and had a chance to drive it, he was inspired to create a very cool space to house our Roadster and future Tesla's. Tesla Motors helped out with the paint color for the doors and the final product was unveiled last night. He did an exceptional job and the Rangers will feel right a home during their next visit.

    Unfair neatness! That's not a populated garage. Drawers are not even in yet.

    The world loves to be deceived.

    I'm going to keep it super clean and streamlined. Everything except for my drill press and table saw/dust collector will be stored in tall cabinets lining the back wall. The drawers are for the master closet he built us.

    What's the flooring made of? Epoxy?

    I'm planning to use racedeck tiles for my garage. See Garage Flooring | Garage Tiles | Garage Floors | Garage Floor Mats | RaceDeck -- will look pretty nice, especially a design with checkered patterns.

    Spred, honestly, do you think anybody is going to post pictures of their garage after seeing your masterpiece? My garage was more cluttered than that when brand new before we moved in.

    The epoxy is from Sherwin Williams. The project started out simply enough; epoxy the floors. It took on a life of it's own once the crew started to implement their ideas. I was lucky to find an experienced and creative group of painters.

    Where do you find your painters? Most of the guys around here seem to have been sniffing their product too much...

    Ha! The GC who built my house recommended a guy he uses for interior/exterior work. He's my age; 36, and very talented. I lent him the Tesla for an afternoon and he became my new best friend. He brought in a 4-man paint crew and they treated our home like it was their own.
