Masking fluid is good stuff but you are really left with the same issue of how you paint the masking fluid in a straight line.

I was going to suggest making your own decals but you will then have to design the decal with the correct curvature of the edge to give you a straight vertical line when fitted. Trial and error might give you a suitable result if you can maybe make tests on plain paper first to see how they look before you commit to decal sheet.
