My son and I just epoxied the floor of our garage with his custom-designed Mopar logos (3:00 minutes in). Video is on YouTube link below, Yesterday we painted the walls to match the 70 R/T hemi, tomorrow adding a chest-high black R/T stripe on all 4 walls. When complete garage will hold his 70 charger and my 70 superbird. Lots of work, but you can see how great the finished product is!

WOW! Turned out great and I love the Mopar logos as well. I never thought about "embedding" an image like that, were they vinyl or what?

Yeah he designed them from the old Mopar logo and took them to one of those vinyl sign shops to print out.

I like it.

Anyone else notice the overall length of the clip?  ;)

Awesome!

How many '5 hour energy' drinks did you consume to be able to move that fast?

By the way if you do the vinyl floor things underneath the clear coat the vinyl needs a special coating on top to keep from discoloring-I will ask Ryan to post what that was

The logos just had a UV protection layer put on by the printers.  The solvent in the clear epoxy might cause issues with the color of the vinyl otherwise. 

I had not noticed the I made the video 4:26 until now either, odd Coincidence considering the Charger engine... Darn.
