Thanks for the help. It looks as if all types of NM cable (NM, NMC, NMS)
are out as per the "dwelling" issue of a detached garage as per 334.10 .
Then
conduit or metallic cable it is!


Depending on how much wiring you need to do, you mind find it easier
to cover the NM with drywall--I don't think you'd need to drywall the
whole garage. On the other hand, I believe MC cable is easy to use,
but haven't tried it myself.

Also in some cities ( Like Chicago and burbs ) most all wiring must be in
metal
pipe and boxes inside of buildings.
