I was told to use a 'dry' brush of paint and put a very light coat along the tape and allow to dry, then followup with the normal wet coat, this prevents the paint from bleeding under the tape. I also did all the cut-in along the ceiling by hand. could not get tape to work at all in these areas.
I all cases, I was able to get away with one coat of paint, and approximately the recommended coverage.
Hope this helps, good luck with your project.

Thanks for the tips. We’ve tried the tape on the ceilings too and, as you said, it doesn’t work that well. I also did the cut-in by hand and that was the part I enjoyed the least.
