I found some "Scotch-Blue Painter's Tape for Delicate Surfaces" which is suppose to come off easier or not peal paint as easy. I will try that next.

My real issue us the old paint is old and the primer below it is blistering up from rust or moisture or both so when you put tape on it, it just pops the paint right off.

The whole truck needs stripping and re-painting but that is not on the adgenda right now. So I am just trying to kep what paint I got on it on there while I am doing other work.

Thanks for all the responses.
