+1 on the SEMS trim black! Theyre about $12.99 a can but well worth the money.. Nice smooth finish, none of that orange peel lookin shit..

Make sure you scuff it a bit

Probably got years of Armour - all baked on it. Use some degree ser or paint thinner.

Scuff it with grey scotchbrite. Use sem trim black. And wash it down several times with dish soap and clean hands. Sounds like you have fish eyes going on from years of armor all or something soaked in
