Give the CP a guid clean, go over it with a scotch bright pad, etch prime it and then paint it
Ah used the Pro-cote satin black on mines and it's still there after 3-4 years

Some of mine have been painted with plasticoat silver and I can not get it off so I would try this if I was you. Has not been primered either, just cleaned and sprayed.
