Default Paint for the underside of a fiberglass body

I'm getting ready to bond the body on my ERA 289 FIA car and I want to paint the underside of the fiberglass body black before I permanently bond it to the frame. I'm no paint expert but it looks like a flat or satin black Acrylic Enamel spray paint wouldn't require primer to spray it to the underside of a fiberglass body and should hold up okay from what I've been reading. For those who know a little more about fiberglass and paint than I do, does this seem like a good choice or would you recommend something else? Keep in mind, this won't be a focal point. In fact, the main reason for the black paint would be just to cover any raw fiberglass and make it blend in to the background while looking under the hood or any other angles where it would be visible.
