As some know the floor situation has held us back for a week or so with rep's not showing up time and time again so with the help of Jammy we decided to get this done....

 

First mission was to make good the boarders by removing messy cement.... Additionally sweep through and get rid of last summers flies

Next stage was to lay acid on the cement, this roughs up the smooth floor so the paint can bond.... Here's Jammy hard at work.... I would have helped but i was busy taking photographs :D

After the acid had done it's work and dried the whole area needed to be washed and scrubbed to remove the etched cement.... Sadly we only had the one broom so Jammy did the work whilst i took the photo's again :rolleyes:

What colour?

 

I like blue myself and it would go well with WIM

 

We have two zones so the color was split...

 

Zone 1. Mechanical/ tyres will be Orange flame.... I'm not overly keen on it but the investor thinks it will look bright and tidy.

Zone 2. Geo/ corner weighting will be Frigate gray :huh:

It's a super tough resin paint so it should last for years but i must say it stunk to high heaven..

 

Special thanks to Jammy for his non stop six hours rolling :rolleyes:
