When I weather with chalks I usually dull coat first then dust and finish with dull coat, the chalk adheres better to the dull surface, when using acrylics and airbrush, it's best to wash plastic model with warm water and some dish soap. This gets rid of parting oils from casting and finger prints from handling, then use latex gloves and paint away. I've had success using a watered down white(reefer white), to spray on models that I've wanted to look older and faded, just repeat light coats to achieve desired results.
