Oh, and sanding, priming and sealing are super important.
Sand with rough sandpaper, and then fine, to get off the plastic coating/texture. A power sander helps, and the fine sandpaper buffs out the scratches. Prime with krylon fusion for plastic, paint, mod podge in between layers, seal with mod podge and then seal with two to three coats of Minwax Polycrylic (in the teal can) and you should be good. Have to make sure everything is fully dry in between layers.
