I'd leave it as it is Bill. You can finish the butt joints in the normal
way, and you don't have to worry about affecting the finish at or near the
textured ceiling. A less than perfect butt joint that is 4" from the
ceiling isn't going to be all that visible.

Besides which, it's in the garage, not the living room. :-)

(Definition) Garage:
1. a building or indoor area for parking or storing motor vehicles.
2. a commercial establishment for repairing and servicing motor vehicles.

I don't have one of those! : )
