I think you need to spray it with a plastic paint that promotes the paint sticking first and then go over it with the color you want. I believe this will smooth it out so you don't get a ruff look.

The coating is a powder coating if it is original. Rufing up is the only way to get anything to stick to it, or remove it all together.
