Default painting pony sanding?

Looking at painting the pony on the front grille flat black, but was wondering what to use when sanding it?

I used 320 grit, followed by two coats of primer, followed by 3 LIGHT coats of Black. It came out great !!

Did you guys use spray cans? If so can you list the brand and color you used for good results? Thanks.
