I bought the 6" x 100 roll. Is that enough for the front 1/3 hood and bumper areas?

TIA!
If you wait until the paint is cool you might have some residue. If you remove hot, most of the residue will be removed with the paint, but that's also when the paint on your car is softest. I prefer waiting until the paint is cool. Or just accept that going on the track does about as much damage as driving on the highway unless you are tailing someone or go into the runoff. I actually have more side road rash than front because I went sideways into the runoff.
