If you have sanded and primed the face blade and are happy with how smooth it is, then you can move on to colour or base layers. Most metallics usually benefit from a gloss black base, it’s not essential but adds a bit more pop to the metallics.
Make sure the piece is clean and dust free then you can start with your next colour. Read the back of the can and follow the instructions, then be patient when waiting for the paint to fully cure.
Are you going all gold for the faceplate or adding black round the eyes? Assuming it’s a mark 85

@midnight mason I’m going to go all good and will probably add an black undercoat layer but do you have any suggestions on how I should remove all the dust and dirt

I use a little alcohol IPA and rub it off, you can just use a damp cloth then buff it off with a micro fibre cloth, you can get tack cloth as this is designed to do the exact job of removing dirt and dust
