I've never seen it (electrical tape) damage paint. But it seems like it could trap moisture and dirt and possibly cause corrosion. But still........I haven't seen it. I have however seen damage from racks, clamps and kickstands by either:
*A ham fisted installer who over tightened it and dented and in some cases crush tubes.
*Things moving around and scratching the heck out of the paint thus causing rust.
