I think you can choose whatever methods you like best. Scotchbrite pad or fine sandpaper, any paint system will do but ideally use a primer that is designed for plastic so that it gets a good grip, such as an etch primer, I often use Halfords Plastic Primer. For the repaint of my Eurosport I used fine sandpaper, then Klass Kote epoxy white primer and Klass Kote epoxy colours.
