Check my site (link below) to see how to remove the door panels for window regulator. The first few steps there will show you how to get the door handle pieces. Then check out the clock fix on my page, it will show you how to get to the center dash and gauge surround. Once those are off, everything else is pretty easy (just look for screws).

as for the paint, just go to your local auto parts store and buy some trim paint (or any paint they have there pretty much) and you should be fine; people often use a clear coat to protect the finish once they're done
if you search, you'll find a lot of recent posts about it

good luck and welcome back

check my site. XRR Custom Designs
any paint you want just light coats. make sure you clean the pieces with paint thinner then light coats of primer then lots of light coats of color then lots of light coats of clear.
