Hi John,
Good to see someone to go through with it, instead of just talking about it. :headbang: :beer:

It came out good and it looks like the guys that made where impressed with their work as well with taking pictures.

With the paint, I remember years ago mum buying paving paint for the laundry concrete floor, it looked great at first, but soon wore off after a bit of traffic. Ever year or so she would re coat it but it always ended up with a walk trail. This was the top brands like Dulux, Berger etc paints, so it wasn't just cheap stuff.

This 2 pack gear the US guys talk about sounds like it works good and last, you can even have speckle in it.  :lol:

Hi Dave, I am still undecided about painting the top, I know it cannot last forever.  Maybe I can find some nice vinyl floor tiles and stick those on? :scratch:
BK:
That's different!! would a pallet jack with a couple of pallets on it be the go to place it in the shed??
Stilldrillin:
By 'ek John!  :bugeye:

That's not going to move much, once it's settled in.......  :thumbup:

As Davo says, it's great to see a good result, from an initial idea.  :clap: :clap:

Looks very good and you have a PLAN to get everything organized. I'm pretty sure you have paint figured out the same level of professionalism and pride.

Now when it is very good and nice, I would dwell a little deeper than only trusting interweb when it comes to primer and paintting it. I have seen what oil and coolants do to concrete, even painted ones. I have been on sites that put a sealer/primer and then two pack paint to concrete floor and if that can take forklifts, maintenance work, oil and all checmicals of any mill, it might just do on a work bench. The stink it during curing is horrendious.
