Good paint job is highly dependent on good prep work allan-son. I learned how to do proper prep and tape work at the body shop I worked at for 3 years. That was more complex tho with fine line and different tapes for different stuffs (primer vs paint etc).
My dad and I have painted my entire apartment less one bedroom in 4 days. Two coats and lots of trim work.
Ceiling trim we did by hand with no tape. It was quicker and easier than taping the damn thing
Also, I like drywall work.

For me, that would be wrenching or building.
I bought a paint gun, in which i used to paint the garage that came out bad ass. But the paint gun made life easy.
To me, painting is like the same level of washing and detailing a car. And, I seriously dislike detailing cars. I just like clean cars so I'll do it. just like this painting crap. I want a nice looking room. just not looking fwd to doing it.

I hardly ever tape--only if I have two walls coming together with contrasting colors. Learn to cut by hand, it will pay off in the end.
Oh yeah, I will tape the hardwood floors if I am doing trim work. But everything else, like Alex's sex life, is manual.

i do know how to cut by hand, hence what i said about ceiling. however, i did not want to risk it and had access to tape and paper for free.
