Use masking tape an paper to tape of what you don't want to paint..
You can use aluminum foil wrap to cover some parts under the hood that you don't want to paint..

ya aluminum foil works wonderfully in hard to get places. Just make sure everything is cleaned up before painting suck to paint over grime

Im really debating on it cause my car used to be blue but is not black and when Im at cruise ins and shows and open the hood its all still blue. I might check out local paint shops too. I think some around here charge less than $200 to do that.

If you can get it done by a professional do it.
