Garage Remodel

[Mosesatm]

So far I've installed LVT (used) on the floor. The walls are insulated, covered with 1/2" plywood, then white FRP. The gloss white suspended ceiling materials are ready to install after I add a few more lights.
My question regards the painted wall. It's an interior wall so it is drywall. I cleaned it up and painted it with an interior color I happened to have.
What is a good color (or mural) for that wall? Stay with gloss white or get a little weird?
By the way, don't cut FRP in a garage unless you want to clean up dust for months!!!

I would go with white, as it reflects more light than any other colour.

There are some companies that make custom murals. Unfortunately, that wall is 12' wide. $800!!

That should be a nice place to work.

wow, your garage has a basement?

Looking good! Any color but RED. Ya know you can use LVT on walls.... make a herringbone pattern? Did you buy a new toy to park inside the garage?

That would be nice, but no, those are six steps down to the house.

Not yet. Want to finish the garage first. I am considering a few, though. Two Rancheros and a GT/CS are on my radar. Good thing it;s only a two-car garage.

By the way, wall-mount garage door openers are wonderful!!!

Interesting idea!!!

My wife would refer to that as an "accent wall", and leave it the color it is. If you hang a bunch of Ford related pictures or memorabilia on it, the current color would help set them off. For myself, I painted my entire shop gloss white.

That looks awesome, Arlie! Such a big difference from when I was there, love it. I'd say an earthy green or deep red color. But, I would suggest a color that would make the color of whatever your next car is really pop.

I vote highland green. I'd turn it upside down and just make a bouncy house out it before paining it red. Something like this 3D flooring would cover all the bases and really pop!

Uh yeah, that is definitely…….unique.

Ready for the Studebaker.
Steve came over and figured out how to wire in the lights without burning down the house. I’m eternally grateful to him for his help!!!
