Paint falling off wall

    Hi

    I have been painting my concrete garage walls for years now with weathershield. Masonary paint. After some time it always begins to crack and fall off. I end up having to scrape most of it off before repainting.

    Is there such thing as a primer for the wall so the paint will adhere better?

    Anyone got advice?

    Thank you

    Is the humidity high in the garage?
    If ya have electric socket access in it, perhaps get a low energy dehumidifyer and dry it out for a few weeks before painting?
