If using rattle cans, definitely use lexan paint - tamiya stuff is usually best. Lots of thin layers works and lasts best and gives smoothest finish. Hold can at least 15cm away. Don't remove protective outer film until all finished. Dry between coats usually only 5mins depending upon temperature.
Umm, can't think of anything else.
Oh, stick some protective tape (gaffa works well) on inside to protect paint where it rubs, or contacts chassis. Makes paint last longer
