The only way I know to paint a clean, straight line where two colors of paint come together at a corner is to paint one color a little beyond the corner and then put painters tape on that color to paint a straight line with the other color. I seem to recall that, where the corner itself is not sharp, putting the tape a little to one side or the other will give a straight line with the illusion that the line is at the corner even though actually offset a bit. Does it matter which side the offset is on? I'm thinking that having the darker color lap slightly onto the lighter side might give the better illusion. Does anyone have experience with this?
