Put one strip of masking tape on each side of the seam where the sink meets the counter. Make sure there is about a 1/8" gap between the two strips of tape.
Overlap several short pieces of tape to make a curve for the outside seam of the counter.
Use a single piece of tape to curve around the edge of the sink.
Using clear silicone caulk, run a thin bead of caulk down the seam.
Caulk has nasty stuff in it. Wear gloves while running your finger along the seam. This smooths out the seam and gets rid of excess caulk. Keep a wet paper towel nearby to clean the excess caulk off your finger.
Peel the tape off while the caulk is still wet.
The caulk will turn clear and shrink as it dries so any imperfections will be hidden. It takes about 30 minutes to an hour for it to become clear and four hours for it to dry completely. Be careful not to get it wet or bump it while it's drying.
