Curious as to what you're using to fill cracks / smooth out the floor.[?] Need to do the same to my garage, which is about the size of one of your bathrooms, and repaint it...
Any advice or particular pitfalls to watch for?

Sweet!! I want to find some land with a metallic building on it that's around 5000 sq ft and call it my barn. Get an ag exemption on the land and grow hay or something simple. Then build living quarters inside the barn and call it an office but keep my travel trailer outside and call it my home. Can we say tax evasion? :D

Sounds like a great plan to me. Less tax = more Mopars!

It's a product called MM80 You mix it 5 to1 and pour it in the cracks. When it dries you take some heat (They used a weed burner on mine) and a scraper and scrape it off. I had mine done for me. It will have a polished finish when they are done. I had old glue from carpet to deal with and this seemed the way to go.

I have the cabinets in, and most every thing done except some plumbing fixtures and some finishing touches on this and that. Installed the lift in the storage side. Have all winter after drag racing is over.

When are you going to put in the 100" flat screen and surround sound in so you can watch all the great car movies.
