Important thing is to wash the inside of the body in soap and warm water, and rinse it properly, and make sure it is 100% dry before painting.
avoind fingerprints inside the body after you washed it
Use correct masking tape, like the stuff you can buy from Tamiya.
Dont rush a paint job, and let it dry before going on.
It takes time to do a pro job.
dont pull off the protecting film on the ouside of the body before you are completly finished.

Addition to SJN's list,

Spray by layers, don't rush the job.
Spray about 5-8 coats with 20min intervals
