That will be why it flakes off as it will more than likely be an enamel type paint that you will buy from wilkos, you do need to buy a paint for polycarbonate as it will flex with the body

By far the best paint I think is the stuff tamiya do, it does cost a few pence more but is is worth it just make sure you get the PS part number

You can key the body with scotch brite or similar but don't go over the windows! Then clean with warm soapy water and rinse well

As mentioned spray light coats try to spray dark colours first if possible, flu and transparent colours will want backing usually with white but you can experiment with other colours like silver.
