Privily just take blue paint and a brush and paint the outside over the smears

When you tape the body use a hair dryer to warm up the tape a little along the edges and then burnish it down. I use a little plastic stick I have (was a paint brush) and then make sure to smooth edge down all the way. This gives nice crisp lines.

Another trick is to get the think striping tape and use that for the edges and then the thicker blue tape on top of that.
