I would sand the texture down first, then let the primer do the rest.

Right .TT/MW (the one you quoted) said there was no sanding necessary.

Without sanding or prep, the paint will release and come off. Plastic needs a bit of encouragement to adhere to paint.Right .TT/MW (the one you quoted) said there was no sanding necessary.

The paint may adhere with an adhesion promoter, but the lack of prep will show every flaw in the finished result.
My dad owned a paint and body shop for 40 years. I have painted everything from boats and planes, to cars and miscellaneous items. I'm overly detailed, and an extreme perfectionist.

Ok guy
does it look like its flawed in pics. Nope.
Actually I can see some graininess in it.
I have taken hundreds of photos of flawed paint at car shows. The camera is good at hiding problems. Plus, I may consider something a flaw that you dont.Ok guy

Good looking Mustang.I painted mine as well. No sanding, just prep like any plastic part. Spray plastic adhesion promoter then seal it a couple times and they turn out decent. The texture is so fine a couple coats of sealer does a fair job of filling it. Unless you got on your hands and knees to look at it you would never know they were textured and even if you did get that close you would still have a hard time telling. Been painted for a few years now and not one rock chip.View attachment 1546404

I know what it takes to lay down a show perfect paint job. I know the effort I have gone through, and the effort I made the last painter make when my Mustang had to be repaired.
