We talk alot about our garages but what about our driveways? Do you have one? Is it cracked? Oil and grease splattered? Perfect and smooth as a NASCAR track? Paved? Bricks? Cement? Dirt?

Mine was basic pavement and spattered with oil, I spent a few hard hours on my hands and knees with a scrub brush and industrial strength cleaner, sealed all the cracks and then coated it with acrylic driveway sealer.



This is my driveway and my old G35

Regular black pavement. Couple small cracks but nothing crazy. No oil or gas spills.

The parking area in my apartment is pretty bad, cracked, with a big smelly, metallic, oil spill from my old trans. The drive way to pull in is the biggest slope ever I have to pull in sideways. I scrape at least once a day.... It sucks!

Regular driveway with an extended section that I added which has a curb that separates my driveway from the neighbors. I usually pressure wash off all oil stains so its pretty clean. The bottom part of my driveway usually has burnout marks on it from my cars.

Cement and has been there for over 45 years. Some cracks but still better than asphalt.

Mu drive way is pretty nice considering it is a 3 year old house. Also my 2 car garage is goregous. It has been proffessionally sealed up with grey cemwnt stain. Looks and feels great, and made clean up a super easy I fm I spill anything. Also dropped bits are easy to find! Only flawn is a knotched being ground out from my front tow hook on the tib lol!
