    Nah that technique works best when the caulk is still as wet as possible.

    Is it pure silicone caulking? I find the latex/blend stuff to be pretty poor at staying down.

    The caulk should definitely still be wet when you pull up the tape. The tape should be a quarter-inch/half-centimeter away from the wall.

    Did the method you watched include the wet finger trick to push in the caulk and smooth it?

    Personally I would skip the painters tape and just do a small bead of caulk plus wet finger.

    catfishsushi OP ,

    When I try without the painters tape in the past I’d ended up with something not quite as bad as the example on the left here. (Not my photo)

    I’m sure I could get good enough to do it properly that way. Seems like using just the right amount of caulk, and no more, is likely the key. https://midwest.social/pictrs/image/fe2ae27c-9031-43c0-b246-a33fe8dbe8a8.jpeg

    So did you do the painters tape plus wet finger?

    catfishsushi OP ,

    Yes, and when I pulled the painter’s tape up it pulled the caulk away from the counter. Trying to understand how to NOT do that.

    You have to pull the tape up almost immediately. If the caulk starts curing, you’ll pull it away with the tape.

    And make sure the surfaces are clean and dry before you start.

    In addition to the other tips here, make sure you fully clean the surface before caulking

    Clean and dry!

    Of course the cat hates it. Has a rep to maintain.

    You understand.

    Showed the picture to my cat and she is totally laughing at him right now.
