Ya'll have a TV in your garage?

My garage floor is so cracked and displaced it might be best to jackhammer it out and re-pour. I'm not enthusiastic about undertaking that, so it continues to be cracked...

If you think your phone is tapped just leave a message about how you buried the proof under your garage.

Chances are good all you will have to do in a week is pour fresh where the old was taken out. Then, because nothing was found, submit a claim with the courts for the cost of the floor replacement.https://www.bayarearidersforum.com/forums/images/icons/icon10.gif

So I guess with this thread turning into the garage remodel without painting the ceilings thread, I'll ask this --

My garage isn't insulated, save for the wall that goes into the house. It definitely gets extreme temps, both sweltering hot in summer and freezing ass cold in winter. At some point I'm planning on tearing the sheetrock out on the 2 side walls and putting in insulation. Easy enough project and I have 2 teenagers to help :laughing

Instead of replacing sheetrock, has anybody put up OSB or plywood instead and then painting it? Seems like it would be easier to hang shit that way without worrying about finding studs, etc.

I did (thin) wood paneling when I remodeled out back yard tough shed into a studio. Part of the reason was because it was cheaper and less messy, but don’t think that’d be the case for thicker wood. Biggest issue was dealing with seams which I finally got good at doing with painters caulk, but the panels I used were thin enough you could do fine trimming with a box cutter. I’ll let others chime in but I’d go with drywall.

Enclosed a picture that includes the painted particle board door. The smooth panel worked with a roller texture, but not the door.

I haven't done it in my own garage, but the walls were treated that way at the pipe organ shop I worked at last year. You can tell it's OSB, but it looked fine in a work space. If you're going to use OSB, make sure it's fire rated.

When I worked construction, we were required to mask off the fireproof rating stamp on the OSB, and paint everything else.
