    Masking Tape on Clearcoat

    How long should masking tape be allowed to stick to clearcoat?

    If I leave it on overnight, will the clearcoat peal off with the masking tape?

    I really hope not because I've already put on the masking tape.

    Well i am not sure if it will peel off the clear coat, but be careful and pull it off slowly.
