In the past we have built a house and remodeled every one we've lived in so we know our way around a remodel.

Unfortunately, now DH has Parkinsons Syndrome and is not able to do things as he use to but won't admit it. Last fall he and our son installed formica countetops in the kitchen remodel. They did a pretty good job with everything BUT the countertops. In the corners of the U-shaped countertops, the 45 degree angles are not perfect. The angle is good but not 100%, more like one side is a TINY bit higher in some places, you can certainly see the seam more than I'd like. I REALLY wanted to hire professionals but DH insisted they could do it (and 10 years ago he could have done it perfectly)

Is there any caulk, filler, or something I can put along the seam to help disguise it? It will probably be a few years before he won't be able to come to the kitchen so I'd like to keep the counters until then for his sake.

ANY suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

THANK YOU

Try your Formica supplier. Formica makes sealants in colors to match their laminates. I have no idea how close you can get to a match.
