Paint it!
Wipe down with lacquer thinner
HOLD UP.
Test your solvents first.
Some lacquer thinners leave a residue (many don't! Test!) and lacquer thinner can be
seriously harsh stuff. DO NOT use it with bare hands (it'll dry your skin out, at least), use it outdoors or in a ventilated shop, and it can melt
many plastics into a puddle of goo.
If you use lacquer thinner, test a dab on an unseen, non-contact part inside a plastic piece first. If it works there, great, then clean a scrap of whatever with it and paint as a test.
I had to use it to get paint off a guitar for restoration, and after a few minutes it would start eating through my gloves. So I'm
careful with that stuff
. It definitely has its place in my Hierarchy of Solvents, but it's not at the start.
With any paint project, I scrub with plain dish soap and a toothbrush first, because I've gotten tired of having to redo anything and it helps get crud out of the crevices. Then my go-to degreaser is plain old rubbing alcohol. 90% if you've got it, but the normal 70%'s fine. Even some denatured alcohol can occasionally leave stuff behind that will react with some paints. Most don't, but still test. They add stuff to it (the 'denatured' part) but the right rubbing alcohol is just alcohol and water. And even alcohol can soften or brittle some plastics. Usually cheap stuff, so don't worry on quality gun furniture. But verify.
Primer. Like other people have said, light coats. If you can see through the first coat--great. Let it dry, apply another. Repeat until done.
And, again, test
any solvent you use until you're familiar with that solvent on
that application. Plastics are finicky things.
Edit: other people have good paint recommendations. I'm a fan of Rustoleum for basic and camo paints. Steer clear of their bigger 'Professional' marked cans for most projects. I like them but only on metal. It always seems to stay tacky, but dry it a couple days, toss that piece in a cold oven and raise it to 200 degrees for an hour, and you might as well have powdercoated it.
