i would suggest not doing it. but if you do, make sure you tape off what you dont want painted and spray about 6 inches + away from the part. then use some kind of clear coat. if you get too close it will look like you done it in five mins. and i suppose if you dont like it you can get mineral spirits or thinner and clean it off. god speed.
