Painting plastic.....

[SyKo13 5,000+ posts]

You sand with fine paper (400 grit), wetsand with finer paper (600 grit), apply primer, wetsand with same grit paper as before (600 grit), let it dry or dry it, clean surface with alcohol or something non staining and self drying, apply color coat (2 coats, don't overspray, if you notice imperfections wetsand with 600 grit paper), apply clear, then seal if you want, apply flex agent as last step if necessary

I think that's how I'd do it, am I correct, or am I missing a step?

Just make sure your paint is something like plastecoat. That has some flex to it.
