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 ? Attached image(s)

What paint is recommended ? Jim, IMHO I'd continue down to 1000, 1500-ish or 2000 until you get a base smoothed to close to what was original, but suggest either Satin or Matte black as closer to original finish (rather than semi-gloss, which will be too shiny & show flaws more). And I agree with using one of the plastic formulated auto paints - SEM, Eastwood, etc. I've had similar problems with Rustoleum, & not just on plastics.
