The owner before me repainted my camper.  Looks great but they did not add back the strips.  They said they could not get a straight line because of the sidings texture.  Anybody have any ideas on how to paint a straight line?

Frog tape and a steady hand with a sash (angled) brush.

Yep. I'd you stretch the take tight along the length of the side and then press it firmly before you paint, you can get a nice line.

Once toy tape the line, you can tape masking plastic over it.

I'm curious what others recommend, but I pull the tape asap after painting the final coat, while it's still very wet.
