Best Way to prep surface for spoiler

Can't seem to find too much on this topic.

For a spoiler that is gonna be put on with the 3m double sided tape. What is the best way to prep the area for the adhesive?

I was going to wash the area with a mild dish soap, dry, claybar then rub the area with isopropyl alcohol.

Are there any other preferred methods? I'm reinstalling my spoiler so I want to assure that it's not gonna lift, like it did the first time lol.

Aside from cleaning the surface thoroughly I'll be using a heat gun to mold the spoiler to the trunk.

Any other tips would be good, unsure if adhesive promoter is necessary or not or where to get it.
