Here's a tip: White paint is more brittle than black paint and the edges break easier, so always pull the tape back against itself to remove it; Never pull the tape straight up.
Another trick is timing when the paint is dry enough to separate cleanly, yet soft enough to not splinter. 30 minutes after spraying, remove just the masking paper, not the tape!
Once the paint is dry enough, do a test pull of less than 1" of tape to see how the edge reacts. If you get a clean paint edge, then it's safe to remove all the tape. Careful, though, since some areas might be drier than others.
For defects, carefully wet-sand any paint blow-throughs and leftover pencil lines. Use a bright flashlight to better see them, checking for leftover tape adhesive too, which you can remove using a cloth moistened with pre-cleaner. Wipe along the paint edge, never wipe against it.
J.R. used @advantagerefinish 675 Euro Max High Solids Clearcoat.
