      Bruce?

      The car was originally Leaf Green, but some numpty painted it Resale Red ages back.

      Cheers,
      Gavin.

        Gavin your Garage looks the business, and I love the matching number plates.

          Thanks Geoff, the garage is still a WIP as the builders from our reno are still using it for themselves. Once they finish and go away I'll be coating the floor, getting some new benches, storage etc. Then it will be the biz! Although I've already hooked the door up to my home automation gear so I can open it with my voice (or Watch, iPhone, etc).

                    Looks great! Embarking on a garage refit next year so hope you don’t mind me asking how you will be finishing the floor? Also what smart garage door opener did you install?

                    Cheers

                      Hey Adam, sorry for the tardy reply. I'm leaning towards the Rust-Oleum Rock Solid garage floor kit. Have spoken to a few who've used it and it sounds like it will do nicely. For the garage I installed the iSmartgate gear which works really well.

                        How does a smart garage opener differ from a nape also one?

                              Just don’t do what I did the second day after having my two pack epoxy floor finished...
                              It was pi$$ing down rain and I go barreling into the shed in the 911, only to lock up the fronts and slide about two meters on the super clean and now wet slippery floor! I then wished that I’d put some textured finish on to at least give some element of grip...
