   couple of coats of primer (plastic primer), flat back between each coat, and then do the same with the colour of your choice (whatever your car is).
   
   then you can always lacquer if you want.
   
   so will need :-
   primer
   paint
   lacquer
   wet and dry (1200-1500 grit)
   
   should do the job that.
