he's trying to mask an area, in this case the wheels, so that he only plastidips what needs to be blacked out... when the tape is removed it takes with it part of the edges.. Emblems are easy since you don't really have to mask, just spray and remove excess.

Plastidip doesnt work like normal paint and it makes it damn near impossible to spray something masked off and pull it off with perfect edges. Maybe try one area at a time and pull the tape off while its still wet, have to be quick and accurate though. Another option would be to use the least stickiest tape possible, painters blue tape comes to mind but it might have to be less than that.
