BTDT. Took me awhile to realize WTF ... apparently cleaning the MC area
with an air hose had put tiny droplets of silicone into the air, which were
still hanging around in my garage the next day. After two failed (small)
paint jobs, which included wiping down with the special solvent required to
remove DOT 5 before painting; I did the third one outside and it had no fish
eyes at all.

Experiences vary, but I've had very good luck doing just that in several
cases. Other times it hasn't worked so well, so I guess it depends on just
how bad the other components are.
