        "text": "Proper sanding is critically important for achieving a smooth, seamless drywall finish. Inadequate sanding leaves visible ridges, bumps, or depressions that will be accentuated once painted, especially under certain lighting conditions. Over-sanding can expose the paper face of the drywall, which needs re-priming or patching. The goal is to blend the feathered edges of the joint compound with the drywall surface seamlessly. Using appropriate sandpaper grit and proper technique ensures a professional-looking result that effectively hides all seams and fasteners.",
