Leadfoot,

When I put my tiles in I glued some old carpet that I had to the sharp bottem edges of the lift and you can't even see it but that will stop it from even making a mark on the tiles. The same for the jack stands except I just cut a square of the carpets, put glue on the stands sharp deges and set them on the carpet overnight. I can't find my bill on what the tiles cost me, but in answer to the above posts about having a professional do it. I did that twice and paid dearly for a mess. The last bunch took a week to do it and then told me when the dam stufff cracked it was caused by earthquakes. This was from what was suppposed to be top line professional installers who worked for one of the major companies. And also in fairness as I said above in an earlier post I have seen people who have had it done and it lasted for years. I also like the idea that I can remove the floor in a matter of an hour. Some of the people after seeing mine have gotten small areas of this tyle and take it with them to car shows to snap together and park their cars on. There is good and bad to most things and I just think I am better off by far with the tiles.

Ron
