not sanded at all does not work with FDM... you will see the print lines. This is why people sand the model... it looks crispy. sure you can prime the heck out of it and get rid of the lines, but it will look bulky and uneven. give it a try and you will see pretty quickly that sanding for 15 minutes makes a huge difference.

you should try learning car painting. the paint job you did would come out better with less orange peel, also if you use blue masking tape you don't have to worry about being sloppy. also the painting technique in auto paints is called "candy" which is a basecoat of gold, chrome, or more commonly silver metallic and a colored semi transparent of clear coat on top to show the base coat underneath, that's the candy part. car paints also have something called chameleon/ DNA which is a color shift technology. just remember to use organic rated cartridges for the respirator, and those do have an expiration so keep them inside ziplock bags
