Building a Showroom Style Garage [COMPLETE TRANSFORMATION]

good morning guys and welcome back to the throttle youtube channel my name is evan and if you're new here take one second hit the subscribe button hit that like button and get ready for an awesome youtube episode in this video we're gonna be completely transforming my three-car garage and my new house here i'm so excited i've always wanted that dream car garage i'm gonna be kind of documenting this whole process over the next couple weeks here and transforming the garage into something really special so without further ado let me show you where we're currently at this is going to be the before and this is going to be the after so as you can see huge transformation stay tuned sit back relax and enjoy time to figure out the first project for the garage renovation this is a christmas gift that chelsea got me we're gonna disassemble everything and see what we got here we go [Music] a lot of this is kind of similar to how like ikea is assembled but everything is really nice like the hardware is nice and everything is organized really nicely and it comes in like a little yeah like a tackle box [Music] [Music] tada just everything went together just like the instructions said pretty straightforward uh we're clearing out this side of the garage today starts the first construction day so i've got my friend memo coming by and they are going to be dry walling all of this we're going to be replacing the lighting we're going to be scraping all this popcorn sealing off okay so the first step of the process is going to be scraping all the popcorn ceiling as you guys saw but once that's scraped off then they're going to be doing some framing and then the drywall is going to start they're doing pretty quick work i'm excited to see what this thing looks like in just a couple hours [Music] so on this section it looks like they spent most of the day focused on the wiring they also ran the wiring for this hvac unit inside the wall all the way this way there's kind of like mouse holes just kind of drilled everywhere it's just like they got this more or less fully complete with the drop downs for the wiring obviously we have all the storage up here which is a ton everything in here is going to be drywall it looks like they also got that all framed up ripping all this out i've got some really nice cabinets the same company that makes these cabinets [Music] all right so it is the end of the day i just got back from the shop um but they looks like they spent a majority of the day on this side getting all the drywall up or most of the drywall up so we'll check with you guys in the morning well here it is the day is here the guys finished up with all the paintwork yesterday they did a lot of work uh they got the bean painted in gray all of their new drywall was all painted up the lights around the ceiling looks amazing each bay now has its own light switch basically and the lights are super bright next up is going to be flooring uh we're going to be working with laticrete now laticrete is a company that i found through evan shanks and they specialize in epoxy floorings and all types of like concrete refinishing justin from laticrete has dropped off a bunch of supplies and today i know it was going to be prep day what are we going to be doing here today justin first step is going to be to prepare it to a concrete surface profile of a two or three which basically we're going to diamond grind it to open up the pores and get the concrete to be able to absorb the epoxy primer that we're going to use [Music] what do you call this monstrous this is a lavena elite from super abrasives it's a planetary grinder it's about 800 pounds or you can take a look at the bottom this is where there's diamonds there's nothing there yet so there's three heads one two three and there's one big plate so one's spinning this direction and these are spinning the opposite direction so you get a nice grind [Applause] [Music] all right so here we have it a freshly ground concrete floor the next step is going to be patching so we're going to be patching all those cracks any holes like this have been cleaned up those are all going to be filled so that when we put the epoxy coating down it's going to be super super smooth like a sheet of glass [Music] all right here we are end of day one with latakri and floor is all patched up and ready for tomorrow we're going to do one final grind in the morning then we're going to apply a black primer and that's going to be imperative to making sure that everything else sticks right now we've got our short filled pigment based moisture vapor barrier and we're adding our black pigment to give us a black base for your three custom metallic colors [Music] oh now we can officially walk on to the base coast this is the gloss black base coat and today we're going to be putting on the metallics but before we do we're going to go ahead and use this floor sander here and just quickly get out any little imperfections you guys can see that hopefully the camera's picking it up whether it's outgassing or some kind of contamination i'm going to sand all that down [Music] so so we've come through we've sanded the floor off so this is the last step and then we're doing the metallic next [Music] [Music] [Music] all right well here it is i am so pumped we went with like a carrera marble design which is something that i've always loved so we actually mixed three different colors a white a gunmetal gray and a silver and this is the effect that we got so epoxy makes it so cool uh because everything kind of blends together and if you didn't know it you would probably think that this was actually a slab of marble all right so the next step and actually the final step before this whole project is done we're going to be applying a polyaspartic hybrid urethane coating this polyester coating is going to provide a ton of abrasion resistance as well as chemical resistance just to make sure that anything that gets on this floor is not going to damage it i won't have to worry about if a couple drips of oil coming out of my bmw get on the floor i can just wipe it up and know that it's not going to stain this beautiful white amazing marble floor [Music] [Music] it is the next day and i honestly couldn't wait any longer to start assembling the cabinets so we brought in the cabinets on this section here and more stuff is here [Music] all right so you guys saw me build like three or four cabinets earlier in this video now we got the mother lode so these are the tall cabinets they're gonna go all along this wall here i'm kind of dreading this because it took a long time to do that little section that i did but i know it's gonna look super good when it's done [Music] no no no no [Music] hello [Music] all right so we got this section in here looks good i think i may want to get some kind of top for this just so it may be a butcher block top or something but we move on to the heavy stuff the cabinets are going to go over that whole wall we might need to call in some reinforcements because this is really heavy i built two of them and then we've got three more to go are you the reinforcements these are myself [Music] so [Music] so that's so awesome we're also going to be putting a bracket probably on top to connect everything together as well as to the wall just because we live in california and i don't want these things to ever fall on penelope or anyone else who's using them but man these are gonna provide so much storage and they look so much better this is gonna be the meguiar's detailing cabinet [Music] that looks pretty cool a couple more tools to throw in there but that is the first time i've ever had enough space to just lay everything out we've got the cars in here for the first time and it looks so good i'm so pumped at how it's turning out got all the mcguire stuff set up some stroller parking here at the end and just i love the way these led bulbs turned out too these are from obsessed garage i brought in this upper this is gonna go somewhere here and then the tv [Music] [Music] all right so there we go tv is up and mounted and looks perfect [Music] so now we have this at the perfect height we have a nice space in between here for a pegboard or something like that if you want to hang up some tools but still a lot of stuff to put away but man i'm out of breath [Music] do [Music] all right that's it the garage project is officially done i'm so excited let's go inside check it out [Music] now that you guys have seen the garage let me give you a quick little tour of all the stuff that we did so on this side we got rid of all of those original racks that came with the house we replaced them with the ultimate garage set up here with tall cabinets plenty of storage half of them are actually unused right now because we haven't even filled them over here we covered up that hvac unit with a 50 inch led samsung tv we've got lowers and upper cabinets as well as a tool box here that rolls if i need to move it over to one of the cars that i'm working on so we brought a refrigerator in from the house that now is our second refrigerator and this one's dedicated to some nice cold frosty beverages we've got more cabinets over here and this right here is pretty special um this was some artwork that was on display for my 30th birthday where we debuted the e36 with delivery from premium auto styling so super special day i figured we put that on the wall it's got all the friends and family signed it and then last but not least you guys just saw me install the quickjacks with the little wall mount set up quickjack's like an alternative to using a floor jack but they're a lot better so not only do they get the car a lot higher off the ground so you have a lot more room to work but everything is really safe and really heavy duty so they all have locks it comes with a hydraulic pump and everything you need to set it up and that's pretty much it so i hope you guys enjoyed this project as much as i did huge shout out to all the partners that made it possible memo and his whole team justin troy rick yaz everyone from laticrete super super excited to finally have my dream garage so thank you guys so much for watching appreciate each and every one of you for sticking all the way to the end we'll see you guys in the next one later ultimate garage ultimate ultimate alter nate no yeah i don't know what she got me it's probably a terrible color you can't do hey spin the thing this no comments oh hey what's your name
