Guys, this is not tape residue I'm talking about here... The temperature differences under the tape actually made the paint surface ripple. Just thought I'd add this clarification.

This is similar to what happens when a bird craps on the hood of a black car in the sun. The paint under the bird crap is hidden from the sun is cooler than the paint surrounding it and it creates a bird crap "etching" outline. It's not the acids doing the damage. It's the temperature differences on the paint causing the damage.
