Then don't rely on a can of paint. Get with the neighbor, agree on the line location, get it surveyed and file a deed. Only way to really "nail" it down. I'm sorry, but paint ain't gonna trump what is filed in the courthouse. Dealt with this exact scenario many times. If there us nothing in writing, the judge will go by what is filed in the courthouse. Verbal agreements mean nothing when one party dies.
