Wall above garage door cannot be painted

Match the symptom

The wall area above a garage door does not accept paint.

Check before changing your save

Check that the active objective targets that strip rather than the door itself.

1. Confirm Steam has completed all available updates.
2. Check that the active objective targets that strip rather than the door itself.
3. Record the unpaintable patch instead of covering unrelated walls.

Official fix versus your current save

The developer's Update 4 note establishes a historical fix for this symptom. It does not publish a universal recovery command or prove that a previously damaged save will repair itself. This guide has not independently retested your save.

Recovery decision

Record the unpaintable patch instead of covering unrelated walls.

1. If the installed game is older than the named patch, update and retest the same action.
2. If the issue persists, try an existing known-good save without overwriting the failing one.
3. If it repeats, report painting, the exact objective, installed build and reproduction steps to the developer's Steam discussion board.
