That is the spray booth.

I did try some epoxy paint on the little office area behind the blue door.

If it holds up and I still like it in a few months I'll do it to the rest of the barn-I like how easy it is to clean.

Here you can see finished vs unfinished.

Does that have the little colored flecks that you sprinkle on?
So that later, when you drop a little snapring or nut or e-clip, you'll spend an hour looking for it?

Yup-only in the pseudo office though. Was mostly to experiment.

Normally I stick with solid colours.

That's a good plan.

I don't remember where it was, but I dropped a tiny part on a speckled floor, and it was a f'n circus to find it.

Excellent shop.  You can get a lot of work done in there.  Didn't see a welding machine although I'm pretty sure you have one somewhere?

Just a comment on floor coatings, now's the time to do it if ever.  I waited too long, I've had my shop for close to 10 years and now it's permanently past the point where I'll ever get it cleared out or cleaned up enough to coat the floor.
