Best $79 I ever spent on the shop

[Hankins]

Down to Lowes because I was sick of not seeing my grinds the way they needed to be seen...
Bought a 4' 4 light T-8 shop light and 4 - 32 watt Daylite bulbs night and day difference. Also bought a $4 can of Chrome spray paint to coat the reflectors before assembly, that helped too
Left the old two bulb 4' light up just for an extra... gets put to the test today
If nothing else the $4 can of Hammerite Chrome paint was worth the trip!

It can't be overstated how important good, full spectrum light is to doing quality work.

I had my electrician put the T8 lighting in my garage. I couldn't work without it. Try to paint a car with lousy light. I have 6 banks of these lights in my three stall garage with 14' ceilings.

I just put some in my shop area as well and what a difference. I got mine at Wal-Mart. About $10.00 for the fixture and another $12.00 for 2 T8 bulbs.
