When is the best time to remove masking when doing a two-tone color scheme?

I have waited until the paint is completely dry, but there is a slight ridge at the edge of the tape.

You should wait until it's just dry.

I also recommend a really thin tape (Tamiya), because it leaves less of a buildup of paint at the separations.

I seem to have better results removing the tape pretty soon after I spray if it's lacquer. For enamel paint I wait longer but I don't let it dry completely. Works better for me. Your results may vary. : )
