I have rounded corners and have had the house painted. The two colors were close to each other on a color chip and the painter sort of painted each separate color close to the rounded section then blended them together. It's not difficult when the colors are fairly close in shade. When there's a big difference, that tool makes the blending a bit easier.

Blue painter tape is your friend:smiley:

To paint a rounded drywall corner:
Say you have a green wall and want to make the adjoining wall yellow.
1. Put blue painters tape at the point where you want to go from green to yellow.
2. Paint over the very edge of the tape with the green color to seal the tape down.
3. Then paint your yellow as you normally would, using a brush or roller.
4. Before the yellow paint is dry-remove the painters tape.
You should have a perfect transition line!
If you don't have any of the adjoining paint color you can try just burnishing the tape to the wall-or buy the really good tape that advertises "no bleed".
Good Luck!
