Do you want them a solid color or would you like more like a wash? I did our old Zbrick that had black trout/mortar and white/black/gray bricks. It softened the color and made it look better without that painted look. I used regular latex/acrylic paint 1 part paint to 1 part water (or more if you want less of a paint look) I did each brick with the paint then wiped it with a damp sponge until I liked the look. I did the grout/mortar with a children's stiff brush and dabbed the color on until I liked it. Here's a halfway done pic so you can see how it looked
You will need to clean any grease/ dirt off them then use a paint/ primer that will stick to a plastic. The paint department staff should be able to give you their recommendation on that.. one that will stick and is compatible with whatever paint you wish to put on top . I used Kilz and then a gel stain to make my plastic suspended ceiling rails look like wood.
