The key is to map your UVs such as they don’t show up. To be honest, I use Substance Painter now as it takes away all these hassles, just using masks. Maybe the layer painter addon for Blender would allow this as I think that utilizes masks.

> Layer Painter is an addon for Blender 2.8x, that allows you to use a Layer-System for creating materials with painting and procedurals. The layers include masks, filters and much more.
