Masking door hinges

We painted a condo and never had much of a problem with just masking them.

Place 2" tape on each side of the hinge.
Put smaller tape on the front of the barrel of hinge. Go to other side of door, pull down the left over small tape so it sticks to back of hinge barrel.
Place small tape on the left and right side of hinge barrel, make both of them meet so both sticky sides are touching eachother. Done.
