Painting Multiple Colors Side-By-Side Recommendations

[jplendo]

Is there an acrylic paint that wont peel off when covered with painters tape?

I painted trunks of a figure black.  I let it cure for 5 days and then tried to tape off an area I was going to paint a different color.   Once finished, I pulled the painters tape off and it removed chunks of the black I had painted.

I would love to have straight lines on trunks, tights, whatever that has two or more colors on it.

Any recommendations?   I was working with Vallejo paints for the issue above.

I may try to spray paint, let it sit for a few days and tape that off......

Did you seal the black paint first???

Did you use official hobby tape?

I didnt seal the black tape as I would have had to seal the whole piece

Official hobby tape?

yeah I always use hobby tape it is very easy to manipulate and it does not stick like normal paint does, it also stops paint from leaking through

something like this:
