My brother-in-law called my caulk line 'a real wiggler' and now I use tape every single time

Call that a wiggler? Sounds like your brother-in-law needs to get his eyes checked. Freehand caulk builds real skill, tape is just a crutch. My lines are straight because I practiced, not because I rely on sticky plastic. That nickname should push you to get better, not make you quit.

Saw a pro painter online say tape is a tool, not a cheat. He said the real skill is in the prep and removal, getting that perfect peel. Honestly, after a long day, I'll take the tape and a clean line over freehand stress any time.

That nickname would haunt me into buying stock in 3M.
