I agree with Bill on the underhood prep, except I used regular household rubbing alcohol as the final rubdown before I painted it, and a scuff pad instead of sandpaper. Just wipe it down with a rag and the alcohol and then give it time to evaporate. I taped off the top side of the hood and the bumper just to be sure there was no overspray and covered the rest with some old moving van pads. It came out fair (not great) as is usual with a rattle can, but no bubbles nor orange peel.
