Would rubber cement work the same as Grease dose when on metal when using as a mask

I would try silly putty from the Dollar Tree chain of stores before using rubber cement. Much easier to remove.

A masking fluid is used in watercolor painting to mask areas of the paper. You can buy the masking fluid but it is usually way over priced.

Here are a couple of sites that suggest how to make masking fluid that you might be able to use.

This one uses rubber cement and acetone:
Homemade Masking Fluid for Watercolors

This one uses latex fabric cement and water:

Rubber Cement has been a common masking material in all types of painting for a hundred years.
Artists and Illustrators have used it on all types of surfaces.

It was used by airbrush artists for a long time (painting cars and bikes, etc).
...being solvent based, I guess it was more compatible with solvent based painting materials.
We never wanted anything with water anywhere near the painted surface, otherwise it could contaminate and ruin the paint job.
When I first got into airbrushing, I used rubber cement a few times.
Now, everything is water based, and there are related masking fluids that are more compatible.
