Apply Painter's Tape (Optional)

Caulking your tape Q&A. Why paint cracks over the caulking?
What happens here
If you are dealing with particularly large cracks or prefer a more foolproof method for achieving a crisp, straight line, re-mask the area. Take a roll of FrogTape and carefully apply it along the edge of the countertop or trim, ensuring the tape covers the surface you want to protect and creates a clean boundary for your paint application. Press down firmly to create a good seal, preventing paint bleed. This allows for a more confident and precise application of paint to the cracked caulk without worrying about getting paint on the adjacent surface.
Goal: For larger cracks or if a perfectly straight line is desired without relying solely on a steady hand, apply painter's tape (like FrogTape) along the edge of the surface bordering the cracked caulk.
