Suggest you use a better masking tape, such as model stores sell. Also suggest you mask the area, paint the area and tape THE BACKGROUND COLOR, then when it dries well, maybe hit it with Floquil Barrier (Optional, but I would) THEN paint the gold line. The rununder the tape is therefore the background color already, and the paint seals the edges of the tape before you ever put down the gold. Don't leave the tape more than a day before removing.
