i work nights and will be painting my car during the day, therefore i may not have time to remove the tape right after painting, can i remove it a day later without an issue? or can i remove it directly after painting without an issue either? last time i painted it i let the paint set for about 1 or 2 hours before removing. i dont want to mess it up lol

If you use a good masking tape, it'll be fine the next day. For instance:

I think what he's asking, and it's a good question, is what's the right time in the curing process to remove tape?

If you wait too long the paint dries, and you get a jagged crack line when you pull the tape off.
too early, and its a big stringy mess.

I thought the same thing that if you remove it too late then you just crack all the paint because it dried on the car.
