Do the grey epoxy with the white or multi-colored texture crap. Then do your walls a darker grey and use black pegboard for your tools. Red lines for your parking spaces will stand out nicely. I like to put the black and yellow striped lines, redlines, and little notices, make the garage look like an industrial environment. Makes me feel more manly out there. But it's your garage man.

i kind of like the darker floor base colors but i had also thought about doing some grey on the walls, but think that dark base with grey walls may not look all that great....but not sure if i really want to do an actual color on the walls....thought about painting the whole grage kawi green, but........lol....

Sounds like when we bought our place with an oversized 2 car garage.

When we moved in...plain...the garage is located on the backside of the house.







Not great but a whole lot better.
