    So now that my hobby is starting to get a bit more serious and my clients aren't always family and friends now I figured I should make the garage a bit more presentable...

    Wasn't thinking so I didn't take before pics :shrug: But my materials were not centrally located and my works space was well a bit disheveled...

    Now...

    Wash station set-up by the garage door...

    Don't worry, don't worry... I don't use the Blue Coral wash... That's for my wife when she washes her car, so she doesn't use my better stuff.... As you can see she washes her car often :rolleyes:

    I also have some Chemical Guys Citrus Wash and Gloss and Maxi Suds II on the way...

    Bench area...

    Got to have some tunes and the laptop houses my media collection so if the radio get's old I can throw on something different... Blank Spot will house my 50ish Micro Fibers... Had an incident last detail where during buff out of the LSP my friend scratched the finish.... Thankfully a bit of 106FA and it was gone... Washing all my micro fibers a few times to make sure nothing is in them...

    Bay...

    With a car...

    Plenty of room to work around an average sized car with the door closed...
    Check out the light too... Got a few for free and they work great for finding defects and working in the garage at night... I got one more to hang near the garage doors too :)

    Run down of my collection, not big but I try and get the best I can afford, but also not waste money on materials that don't seem to cut it by doing research...I don't do interiors all that much so I haven't started getting materials for that purpose yet...but will soon be starting...

    The green curtains look interesting. Were they there to match the curtains in the main house or did someone just wanted something different.

    You seem to be shopping some at DD!

    LOL on the curtains! They were left by the previous owner (I wonder why :) ) I took the curtain of the other window and left the sheer just haven't done it to the other window.


    I like buying from DD. Pay for ground shipping (when it isn't free) and it's still here next day!
