TR4/4A Shop progress

I’ve been on the road picking up another TR6 basket case, so I don’t have any pictures from this week, but last week the driveway was poured and the shop deck finished. The paint is almost done, air piped and retested with QC installed. I’ll get over there today and see what’s been done and update later, but it should be cleaned out by now. I’m still on the fence regarding what finish to put on the floor...concrete guy recommends acrylic, but it’s not gas proof and I’m back to thinking 2 part epoxy. Any ideas based on experience?
Thanks, Rut

I went epoxy, smooth finish, since I figured in a shop building I would have to crawl/slide around on the floor from time to time. Give the concrete some time to cure before putting epoxy down. You can get additional information from the epoxy guys on that.

I second that. Epoxy, a light color to reflect light. Use 100% solids from a paint shop, not the water-based stuff from big box stores.

Your progress looks great!
