The caulking after taping is for textured walls (especially deep textured walls). If you use just tape, the paint will just barely squeeze underneath the tape between the lumps and ridges of the texture not making it a super straight line. Of course, using a Purdy eliminates all that IF you know how to use it/cut properly. For everyone else, this is worth it.

@@lyssakate Yep, so when you trim with a brush, it leaves brush marks, unlike a roller. If you roll first, when you trim you'll get brush marks at least a few inches wide. But if you trim first, you can come back with a roller and roll close to your trim which covers most of the brush marks. It's pretty easy to roll within an inch or less of the trim. Also, make sure to remove all outlet/light switch covers before you paint, that way you don't have to try painting around them. Anyway, there are other ways to do it, this is what works for me. If you've never painted before I would suggest watching a couple KZitem videos first, as there are different ways to paint. You've got this! :)
