Default First Canopy and Scale body Painting

Hi, I am about to paint a new fiberglass canopy and wanted to get some advice on prepping, primer, and paint selection. I also have a plastic kyosho bell 222 fuse that I would like to paint after I fly it with the just the stickers. I finally invested in a paint gun and airbrush system so no more spray cans. Also after reading a few post I realized you could cut masking for designs with a plotter/cutter. Now I regret selling my Lynx 12 a few months back because I thought I would never use it again.
