the guy who owned my car first i believe painted the car by him self. i dont kno what he used, but the hood came out the cleanst. i dont think it would be that hard for a hood. and if u want u can take ur hood only and get it painted it doesnt cost that much for just a hood

I know someone who painted a JDM CRX hood with touch-up spray paint. While he thought it looked good, it looked horrible. Don't waste your time with rattle cans, prep it yourself, and get it sprayed professionally.
