New caulking you can paint over when wet that will not crack.

What happens here

Once the masking is complete and the appropriate caulk (like Tower Accelerator) is ready, the application sequence involves applying the caulk to the identified gaps. Immediately after caulking and before the caulk fully cures, the area will be spray-painted. Crucially, the masking tape must be pulled off while both the paint and caulk are still wet. This technique helps ensure a sharp, clean edge and prevents the caulk or paint from tearing or pulling away when the tape is removed.

Goal: After applying the caulk, the plan is to spray paint over it immediately, then promptly remove the masking tape while the paint and caulk are still wet to achieve a clean break.
