        "text": "Priming garage walls before painting is often a good practice, especially if the walls are unpainted, stained, very dark, or have been recently patched. Primer creates a uniform surface, ensuring better adhesion for the topcoat and preventing blotchiness. It also helps to seal porous surfaces, reducing the amount of finish paint needed. If your garage walls are already painted and in good condition with a similar color, priming might not be strictly necessary, but it can still enhance the final finish's durability and appearance.",
