I wasnt really paying attention when i started painting my body and i started with yellow. Im doing a 2 tone and the other color is blue. if i gt overspray on the yellow would it ruin my body? or should i just be safe and tape off the yellow when im done with it? thanks

Back the yellow in white then silver, and then spray your blue.

you should be ok with just the white, although i'd sugest masking off the yellow area as much as possible with blue painters tape and some newspaper just in case.

I would say you should be ok, but if you were to also back the white with silver then you won't chance the blue from showing through the yellow and white. It sholdn't hurt the color too much as along as you back the yellow.
If you do want to mask the yellow I would stay away from tape as you have too much risk of pulling the paint up (unless you let the paint dry for about three or more days). I would use Bob D's LMF as it is made for covering painted rc airplanes (you paint on the out side).

Carbon is right. To completely avoid having the blue show through the yellow, you need to back the yellow with white (for brightness) and then silver (for color protection). You MIGHT get away with just a couple coats of white, but maybe not.
