I did a quick sand to scuff it up a bit with a scour pad and cleaned with alcohol. They came out great.
That is the easy part. The getting them apart portion is where it is so time consuming.
Good luck man

I bought sand paper and never used it. I actually used Krylon Fusion. I didn't even use primer because it's pointless when this stuff was designed for smooth plastic. They came out awesome.
