Sizzle Chest Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 I've been wanting to do some 'updates/upgrades' to the operating room at Autodermatology for a while now. Finally finished with my research and pulled the trigger!New epoxy floors, garage doors, and openers!I'm digging it! I think it looks great. I have 12' ceiling and I went with high lift tracks for the garage doors. This raised the doors almost to the ceiling and really opened up the area. It also gave me more room for additional lighting which I will add shortly. I also had wall mounted door openers installed in order to remove the old garage tracking/motors from the center of the ceilings.I still need to add my additional lighting as well as do some painting on the ceilings and walls where some old supports were and it will be completely finished!The floors are base coat, top coat, full broadcast with mica chips and then top coated. Baseboard was also added all the way around for a 'finished' look.Comments are welcome!!! Before: Epoxy going down: Floor done and curing! What a vehicle looks like on the floor: New doors: Thorsager, zapdon, bosco1 and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shane@detailedreflections Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 Your surgical suite it looking awesome. Can't wait to see what lighting you choose to use. I've debated putting new lighting in my garage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pirahnah3 Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 wow, thats a really awesome looking setup you have there, the new floor and doors really look good there as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mc2hill Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 Holy cow that looks fantastic! And those doors look amazing! I was in a class taught by Jason Rose at Mobile Tech Expo and he recommended black walls and ceilings for paint correction (the Rupes studio is setup this way)...sounds cool, but I am sure Mrs. Sizzle would have vetoed that!

Sizzle Chest Posted February 1, 2017 Author Share Posted February 1, 2017 Is that a portable lift on the floor in one of the pics with the Porsche? Indeed it is! I recently picked it up. It's a Ranger Quick Jack and I love it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shane@detailedreflections Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 I'm intrigued as I've been considering various lift options. Especially after doing the Lotus which doesn't easily go on jackstands. Instead I took the wheels off one at a time, coated then and reinstalled. Then repeated the process again to boost them. A low or mid rise lift would be a massive time saver. And since that doesn't have to stay on the floor all the time, it's even better. Which model did you go with? I saw they have a few. I'd like something that can do smaller cars as well as a typical truck? Although a truck is easy enough to jackstand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LT1xL82 Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 Lifts are GREAT for detailing. I use a 4-post...drive the vehicle on, raise to desired height, detail, lower lift, drive off. (Self, remember the drive off is the last step! ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to do all my wheels off the way you did. It got to be a pain, this lift makes it so much easier. And, it's portable. You can even take it to your buddies house in the back of a pick up or SUV!
