I would agree with the detail shop's sentiment. There's no way masking tape would take off the factory paint, heck even if they put packaging tape on it, it shouldn't come off from a factory piece. To play devil's advocate, they needed to mask to do their job, I can't call them negligent for not knowing the paint sucks and has poor adhesion. There's no real way to test that without actually sticking something on there and seeing if it comes off, at which point it's too late? Despite this they still took responsibility when really it's very hard to blame them

Just unlucky that whoever painted it before did a great job hiding the repair
