Need to paint some non textured fog surrounds on my car gloss black, not looking for the ultimate perfect finish but a half decent one.

Is it literally a case of sanding the part, few coats of primer between each coat then spraying a few coats of gloss black on top then polishing it a few weeks later once its fully 'cured'

sand - degrease -plastic primer /maybe high build if textured ..sand again - paint

or some new parts come already in primer so sand and paint

No need for lacquer if its gloss black paint?

Also what grit sandpaper for each stage?
