no dont sand them down like that or the plastic will go fluffy. scuff the surface with a red scothbrite. wee spray of areasol plastic primer and 3 coats of high build primer. flat them all down and another 3 coats of high build. then flat down again, paint and lacquer. itll look fantastic... | |

still use the plastic primer cos hardly any exept epoxys will grab it well, but the plastic primer will. | |

Filler primer. This is NOT a primer than "fills". It is a specially designed primer, used for priming filler. | |

Agree with cobra, sand the texture down about half way, and use filler primer to build the surface up flat then paint, might have to use a plastic primer first before the filler primer so the paint takes to the plastic | |

To save yourself a lot of work you could try filler primer. Personally though, I hate the stuff. Its time consuming rubbing it all down but the end result will be worth it. | |
