Why do you ask these questions, grasshopper?
Do you think that would achieve much other than, perhaps, aesthetically (which hardly matters in a garage)? As RF has said, just T+E 'clipped to walls' is usually adequate (and extremely common) in the average domestic garage.My choice would be plastic conduit ...

You were clear. I was a dozy burger!
If you do metal work/carpentry of other stuff I'd opt for Steel conduit. If not plastic.
SWA not sure why i'd want to use that for lighting and socket runs inside a garage.
Perhaps, but only against certain types of trauma. You're talking about a 'compromise' that I have personally rarely seen. IME (albeit limited), domestic garages either have T+E clipped to the walls (often with plastic accessories) or, if there are concerns about mechanical damage, steel conduit (and metal-clad accessories).I think it would John yes. The plastic i've used for outside lighting from TLC is pretty good and will offer a fair bit more protection compared to twin and skin direct.
Or even metal capping. Not as much protection as metal conduit, but better than plastic.if there are concerns about mechanical damage, steel conduit
