Default Liquid masking

I've got to do the complex job of painting a 68 GTO hideaway grill ... and extreme exercise in masking ... was wondering if anyone has ever tried using a liquid masking product? Don't know if it would be a help or not, but just exploring options.

I watched a guy use liquid mask back in the 90's. He was painting rear windows on 3rd gen Camaros.
I have no clue what he used, but it was impressive. The stuff dried to a semi-translucent white. He'd draw the logo/mural/design, then X-acto out the parts he didn't want masked, spray it, let it tack up, peel the mask... Voila! Instant art.
I realize this isn't much help- it more of an encouragement post- Go for it!

You may think this is crazy, but when I did my 68 GTO. hideaways and my 68 Camaro RS hideaways I used a cotton swab and Vaseline, or petroleum jelly.. yup, works well, cleans easy.
