Prepping for paint

$

Not my car... I have an old 1974 VW Beetle that has been resprayed 3 times. Everytime theres something wrong. Found that people dont even have the decency to prep the car properly. THEY DONT EVEN SAND THE CAR DOWN! They just spray over the exisiting paint and the overspray is everywhere.

So I thought that I will do the prep work and get someone reputable to spray as the prep work takes most of the time and will maybe cut down on cost.

As I have never done this before I would like some input on techniques and grit paper, etc.

Researching the net it seems that people are actually warning off guys doing this for the first time. Telling them its a waste and they can do more damage than good.

Im always willing to learn. Is this a good idea to do myself?
