Getting ready to tape off my 39 Ford for bc/cc and was wondering if its better to tape off all of the holes from the inside or to not tape. I want to avoid too much build up in these penetration areas and avoid runs. What is the common practice with these amounts of holes? Thanks.

I tape all holes. Always.

if you tape the holes from the inside you will have a ton of build up and the hole will no longer be of the correct size, then you might have to ream the whole exposing metal.
i leave the holes the way they are for primer then use silicone plugs trimmed of so they do not stick out to far. https://hightempmasking.com/products/16 ... 64QAvD_BwE Experienced Trained Certified

I poked small bits of Blue-tac in some holes then painted. It worked out well.
