Default Painting Tips

I was wondering the best way to go about preping and painting my bike's farings. I have aquired some filler to take care of the deep gouges (thanks, plasticweld!), but what grit of sandpaper is necessary to rough up the paint and ready it for the filler and primer? What kind of primer is best? What type of grit for the primer?

Thanks all!
