My van's previous owner sprayed the whole thing black with no surface prep. I've sanded all this off apart from inside the rear vents which are a pain to get to. Does anyone know a good technique for this job?

If it's not been prepped then the paint will have very little or no adhesion, I would try a pressure washer first, that's what we do to get rid of most smart repair paint jobs when we need to paint over them or repair them.
