Hey Clode, sorry to here that...
Orange peeling sucks when it happens. A few questions for you, are you rattle canning or do you have a sprayer/compressor set up. If your rattle canning then not much you can adjust other than standing a little farther back and painting really thin coats. If you have a compressor, you can try increasing your air pressure. Do you thin your paint? You can try thinning it a bit more too. Generally orange peeling happens when the paint isn't put on evenly, or the paint dries to quick in certain areas and doesn't have time to "level".
A light wet sanding will smooth it out, no reason to remove all the paint and start again. Think of it as a thicker more protective coat.
As for the tape lifting the paint, most likely you didn't get good adhesion to the undercoat, or the paint wasn't completely dry. What is under the paint, primer?
