Prop it open w/ a screw. Get in there w/ a gray scuff pad the best you can. Paint it propped open if you can cover all the edges. If not base in the crevices and close, finish base, check coverage then clear.

scuffing it with a grey scuff pad is more then enough. try to get all the area's as possible you dont have to be super perfect with it.

then spray it after cleaning it up etc...

Yea you dont have to competely remove ALL the paint. Just make sure you scuff everything up, clean, and she should be ready!
