Removed the overspray and other gunk with 150 wet/dry; then sanded with 320
wet:dry

1. Should I continue on with finer paper ?
2. What paint is recommended ?

Nowadays you can get rattle can paint that sticks to plastic. I would test a semi gloss clear, or maybe a semi gloss black. I stay as clear of rustoleum as I can because I have problems with lifting on second coats, directions followed or not.
I have to say I am impressed by your diligence, but not too surprised.
