YES, JAFRO has a SHOP! Sort of. 

It's already changed everything. I'm feeling it bad. Leaving for shootout in 5 days. Keep pulling constant 3/4 of a nighters. Man can not survive on 1/8 of a day of sleep. I still have 4 more memory cards to import.

If it would be an usb standard it would be called Jafromobile 1.0 version 2.0 😂

@@Jafromobile see you there!

That's the best part of this for sure. Nobody can tell me I can't ______ anymore. WATCH ME! ;)

Shoutout to my automotive enabler! You know you're a big part of helping me close this circle whether you feel like you are or not! 5 days from the Shootout and my car is in pieces. Still chasing that full Shootout experience!

It's 3:42 am. I just got home from rolling around on my shop floor with a jack and jack stands. 🤣😅😂😭

Bro... real talk... including the physical recovery time and paint drying time, this took a month. I paid rent twice before car work started. Just budget for that, as well as the paint. It's not just the paint, sprayer, power washer, ladders and masking supplies that cost money. There is a physical toll. There was a week of power washing, and you need 2100 PSI at the very minimum to do anything with concrete. You will be drenched for a whole week now matter how many PSI. Use deck boots with the power washing so you don't destroy your shoes and your feet don't prune. My favorite are the Huk Rogue Wave's. Your feet will thank you. They're cheaper than whatever work shoe you like that will die, I promise. You will spend whole days power washing if you have a well-oiled slab. Purple power scrubs before power washing helps best, and you can get it cheap in 5 gallon buckets. You will feel muscles you never knew you had aching and making you walk funny the day after. Buy knee pads for whatever you can't do standing (like the masking job) and really comfortable boots that you don't care AT ALL if they get paint all over them when you're painting. Tyvek is supposed to cover them, and it does, but unless you wear replaceable booties over them, you will wear through them eventually while walking around. Your masking game must be on point or the cleanup will take forever. Even though I only masked lights, the lift and the floor, it took me two days total. I tried to mask only where I was painting and my first wall bit me hard. I spent a week cleaning up all the overspray. Big Red was outside the garage doors about 20 feet away and it needed the same treatment, so don't paint with the doors open no matter how hot it is. Tyvek is a curse above 85°F because it doesn't breathe AT ALL. We had a heat index of over 105° every day I was painting. Don't leave your hood off like I did while painting for even a second when you're painting or it will end up all through your hair. You will paint yourself. If you use an airless sprayer, EVERYTHING must be fully masked before you spray ANYTHING. Overspray will coat everything air from that space can go. You can wash paint off your hands with soapy water so you don't need gloves, but wear a respirator, goggles, and Tyvek at the very least. Power washed it a second time just as vigorously as the first time to get all the overspray out of my clean, dry floor. The second you finish you will never regret a single second you spent doing any of it. The only time I ever get dirty in there now is when I'm working on my Hyundai.

I used way more paint than I expected, too! lol! Holy cow! I thought changing paint colors in buildings cost less than painting a car. Nope! My show winning GSX paint job was only $1680 back in 2005. This is a huge shop. The extra gloss coated better than everything else I used, but it still took 45 gallons of paint just for the 3 bays. It is awesome to have light. Lots of light. I needed light, and so did all of you!

@@Jafromobile Lots of light is godlike! Actually funny because it's sad that it cost you more to paint the shop than your car. Best of luck in the new space!
