I saw this done on Ask This Old House. The guy used some kind of acid etchant to prime the surface. It was a dark liquid he poured on, then rinsed off. Then he used a HVLP sprayer. Here is the video and instructions:

They used this guy:

Jack Donaruma
Donaruma Fiberglass & Porcelain Repair
P.O. Box 189
Hudson, MA 01749
800-641-9676

He probably doesn't go to Berkeley though!
