3M Is Not Your Friend

When two walls come together that are different colors, I thought that it was standard practice to paint one side, let it dry, then tape over the painted part and paint the other side. Well, that may well work, but don't you try to do it with 3M Painter's Tape. I painted the ceiling in the hallway and let it dry for about three days. Then I taped up the line and painted the walls. The tape was off within three hours and the ceilings were definitely dry when it went on. And yet this is what happened.
Total crap. I'll be doing it over again today with a brush. After razoring and sanding and spackling it, of course.
