Lots of variance in pants. Stick with one brand, one type (laytex, acrylic, enamel, lacquer.... chosen by plastic/metal/wood used)
Tape used is usually based on when you're pulling it and/or how strong the base coat is . Regular masking tape can often make the best line, but it's most likely to pull up masked fresh paint/primer, especially if it stays on a long time. "Blue masking tape" or green have different levels of stickiness, read the label 😜
Cheap pinstipe usually makes for good fine line masking.
