My dad (he's an electronics technician) said that the tape won't necessarily ruin the pcb, but it will make the board very sticky if you ever wanted to remove the tape. All masking tape has adhesive and that adhesive will probably end up on the board, but if you're alright with a bit of a residue then go for it.
