Its all good with the other half. We actually spent 2 years looking for a property to be able to big a workshop and everything was with her consent. I service her car so I needed a shed high enough for a hoist and I have a 4WD that is 2.1m to the top of the roof rack.
Should be fished tomorrow.

Looking at painting the floor next.
Can any one recommend a good paint/sealer/coating or something that works good?

Hi Ross
In my garage I used a Dulux two pack product called Durebild it's pretty good, there probably is cheaper options around

looks big now but once the hoist goes in and a few work benches and cupboards for storage it disappears pretty quick lol ...be careful of what you paint it with some of the stuff is slippery as hell if it gets a bit of water ect on it .

my shed is 55 ft by 25 ft and its full to the brim lol.

I used PPG Amerlock 2K on mine. It's a 2 pack epoxy based paint and has held up very well so far. It starts out glossy but then goes a little chalky and matt after a few months. It's been pretty good from a non slip stand point.

Cheers
