Yep, this.

  • I do 120 or 150 grit to keep a smooth base so no sanding marks make it through the paint.
  • Wash with soap and water and let air dry over night before starting to paint.
  • Get a decent primer that says it works on plastics -- I use Rustoleum primer and it's a general use + plastic primer.
  • Adhere to your dry times religiously. If it says recoat within 1 hour or after 24 hours, don't cheat that. At all. There's a reason it has them. Spray paint cures in part by having curing chemicals mixed into the paint evaporate. If you spray an extra coat before those chemicals have evaporated much at all, it's fine. If you wait for them to completely evaporate, great, they're gone and the paint is cured. If they're in the process of curing though, you'll mess up the coat beneath. It's awful.
  • I would also highly recommend a top coat of some kind. I really like Rustoleum Clear Gloss Automotive Enamel It's the toughest top coat I've ever used and offers a glossy finish that's not mirror-sheen glossy like you'd get from Krylon Triple-Thick Glaze Put two light coats, then the last one till it looks nice and wet and it's fantastic. Let it cure for a day or two so it hardens -- full hardness in a week as stated on can.
  • A single-pass light sanding with 600-grit (450+ would likely work) between base coat and top coat can also help adhesion of the top coat. Just be really light with it. Optional.

    Here's my QFR that I painted. It has a fair few process pictures.

after removing the case I gave it about 8 light coats of this with about a half hour between coats, then after a few days I gave it a few coats of this. just make sure its clean before you do start and wait a couple days after you finish before you put it back on
