Awesome update there...looks nice!
How much was the floor btw? (and what brand?, if you don't mind)
Does it hold up to a floor jack or jack stands okay?
Thanks for the tip on the shop light LED's btw. I finally got mine installed a few weeks back and they're BRIGHT...I love them
The lights are bright for sure.
On the decking I paid 1243.00 shipped for a 3 car garage. You can choose from a variety of colors which allow you to make unlimited patterns if you want to get creative. I just went with 2 colors and checkerboard pattern (4 tiles per square). I did add edging to the entry so it looked finished and clean. Some folks do edging all the way around.

They also sell the more expensive Racedeck. The Racedeck is going to hold up to a lot of garage work. I believe the Garage decking will hold up fine to the fairly light use I plan on giving it. My jackstands have nice wide flat feet to spread the load. Racedeck is about twice the price. For the dirty work I have an area outside of the garage to do stuff.
In my garage there was an exposed rough concrete foundation bordering the 3 walls. And the lousy looking concrete step leading into the house. When you lay the floor you need to leave about an inch all around for expansion etc. So I painted all of that concrete with some gray concrete paint to give it a finished look in those areas where the floor would not cover the terrible looking concrete. I also used ramp edging pieces at the entry which left about 6 in of concrete exposed, painted that as well. Basically painted the entire border about 12in in from foundation or garage doors.
My wife and I laid the floor in about 4 hours. The hardest part was removing everything from the garage.
