Youre putting masking tape over the silver & black? You dont need to, you paint over it, thats why you do darkest to light, the lighter paint wont be seen behind the darker paint.

I am going to be painting my new body for my X next week. I plan to paint the inside black only so the windows are blacked out. I am going to give it a nice trick paint job with ghost graphix. So I will be painting the outside and treating it like painting a real car. Also lots of clear coat. This is going to be for show and the stock body for bashing.

If you use the right tape you will be fine. I suggest you use the actual tape for painting a car. You can get it at any autoparts store. If you have pics that would help out aswell.

the paint won't come off if the body was properly prepped
