[s-cars] Garage project (NAC)

Dave,

Is the garage drywalled?  What you want is soft surfaces.  Also, putting
items in the garage will help.  I don't have any problems in my garage which
is mostly drywalled, except for a small portion of the ceiling.  The
cheapest soft surfaces I can think of would be buying large styrofoam panels
and putting them whereever they don't interfere with other functionality,
like hanging things on walls.

So... my "dream car garage" nears completion.? I just finished putting down
25 mils of industrial grade epoxy on the floor (piece of cake, I might add),
and it is gorgeous.

It is basically ready to move in, but an annoying problem has surfaced.? I
hadn't really noticed while working in the garage alone, but when there are
a few people inside talking, you can barely understand each other... the
echoes/reverberation are unbelievably bad.

So, to those of you?that may have?experience, what is a good way of reducing
this to a tolerable level?? I've researched acoustic panels, etc... but the
cost is a bit extreme for a garage.? I do feel I must do something, as I
can't even imagine what an impact wrench might sound like.

Any ideas appreciated...

Dave
