trying to make sure i've got my 3d printed replica assembly/painting process right here

ok, so the shaft is printed in segments and has a slot down the middle for a pex pipe to work as a spine. i'm gonna fasten the segments to the pipe with expanding white gorilla glue, and to each other with plain old super glue. then i'm gonna prime the shaft and spraypaint it glossy red https://i.imgur.com/0dt3NI2.png

the fittings of the cane (orb, collar, and tip) are all printed separately, and i'm gonna prime them all and spraypaint the orb dark gold and the collar and tip light gold https://i.imgur.com/W9Ne9mt.jpg

then i take delicate frogtape and mask the filigree on the shaft, and take a craft knife with a fresh blade to carefully clean it up, then some flexible tamiya vinyl masking tape to fix any fuckups, then re-prime(?) and spraypaint the filigree light gold, then carefully remove it all and pray it worked without fucking up the red paint

am i forgetting anything? am i retarded? i know not to topcoat b/c i'm using metallic paints
