Tape lifting from overspray - where I don't want it to lift
Lots of masking began to let loose over the bottom panels.  If it lifts even a little during spraying, the overspray gets under there and it no longer sticks, and gets worse with each coat.  I used the Delicate surfaces tape, because it lifts much cleaner at the masking line (when you want it to), but I should have used the cheaper 14 day tape for these sorts of areas as it holds much better (when you want it to).
