Painting dash face

I'm about to paint my dash face, and just before I do I want to sanity-check what I'm doing.

First I stripped all the old paint, 3 layers - black, (believe it) yellow, and grey. I cleaned the raised letters, all in perfect shape, under magnification. Then I used a ScotchBrite pad to cut the remaining finish a little.

There are a few nicks I'm going to fill in with hobby enamel (model paint) - they're too shallow for any filler I know of. Then I'll take it to a paint booth available to me, wash it with a pre-paint solvent and paint it with Mar-Hyde Automotive Trim.

Ditto for the steering wheel cowling and glovebox trim.

Any (future) problems with this?
