Now there is this. If you are doing say, and Airplane and it's slated for a contest You want to use tape to protect the surroundings right? Right! BUT there is also a way to be sure to NOT destroy surrounding detail. Use the kitted assorted flexible sanding sticks available in most good hobby shops or online shops. Then use Nail Proffessional Sand and Buff strips to finish. Did you know that as you wear away an area you can cut to a new edge because of their hard foam cores and they are great for wet sanding too!
I also have this to recommend, Many here deal with that on a regular basis because they do a lot of aircraft. Pay attention to their tips.They haven't steered me wrong yet. Even I can learn something new and different or a twist on an old technique!
I like to use the nail sticks also,a lot cheaper thrn say the ones from Squadron.
Those beauty supply nail sticks are identical to those sold by Squadron and others, in grit if not shape.
But they can't be as good. They don't have a model company's logo on them.
Just beware of those sanding sticks from Alpha Abrasives. They had issues for a while with the abrasive washing right off of them during wet sanding. Don't know if they have fixed that, or if its an "under new management" kind of problem.

I keep a lot of wood cloathspins on hand. I make simple sanding blocks by gluing sandpaper on the flat side of cloathspin halves. I use both full size pins and the mini ones for smaller blocks.
