This is what I do also. The part is very easy to handle and view under lights this way. I usually build AMT kits and I have yet to see a part on the sprue that doesnt require clean up so I never paint parts whilst still on the sprue. Some parts lend themselves to the tape method and I go thru alot of that green body tape.
