I simply cleaned with an all-purpose cleaner (windex would do I guess), rinsed, then wiped with alcohol. Then masked off where I didn't want painted, then wiped with alcohol again to get any finger prints off.
That was very helpful to me and my wife will be very happy! I guess I'll be posting a picture of her on her pink glide in a day or so. Thanks so much for the help.
