JNK Products for the flooring in my garage. Its concrete and I use this rubber flooring for vapor and ease of clean. I also have a marine type (boat and deck) carpet under my 69 Z and 69 nova. The guy cuts and binds it for me all the way around. You can customize your size. It is 8X17 and makes it easier on my feet to work on the car. I also have electric heat in the garage and lite flannel/cotton sheets on the cars. Flooring really seemed to upgrade my garage. It is quieter, warmer, dryer and much cleaner than before. I purchased 3 rolls of vinyl 8X24 and the marine and deck carpet for about $850.00 for both delivered.

I was thinking come summer on etching the floor and going with an epoxy system??

If the garage is unheated will a dehumidifier freeze up?? I know they generate heat but the condensing coils, would they ice up????

This is the ticket for long term storage. Extra dessicant packets too. I've used one for 3 years now and no rust on any natural steel parts. Excellent product! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...s/headbang.gif

I have used the car bags for years and the cars are well protected from moisture and condensation from temp changes.

Re: Attached Garage Storage Question
 

Carl, some dehumidifyers are rated to work at 40 degrees, the LG I have I think goes a little under that (35). I don't have any issues in my garage even when it gets really cold outside, like teens or single digit degrees. Even at that my garage still stays right around freezing (32 degrees at its lowest) and the dehumidfyer is not pulling much of any moisture when it is this cold anyway and I usually turn it off and let it rest a while... Just watch your humidity gauges in the garage.. The big thing is the fluctuation in temperature.. Thats when the condensation sets in.... Thats why its important to just keep the garage sealed off and do not open the door...

Re: Attached Garage Storage Question
 

The best money we spent at our new shop was a heating/cooling system. nothing fancy, just a heat pump with electric backup (heat), with simple duct work.

We keep it at about 60 in the winter, 78-80 in the summer, which keeps everything nice and dry (condensation). We do use car covers, but for dust, and park on carpet. Besides keeping everything dry, it is nice to be able to go to the shop and all you have to do to be comfortable is adjust the thermostat.

In years past we did as others and basically put everything up for the winter, not spending much time in the shop, now a nice place to hang out..
