All that really needs to be done is scuffed/sanded so that there is no more smooth and shiny spots. You need to make sure the paint has something to bite onto and hold its bond.

just sand the paint so there is no shiny spots with like 320 or 400, then clean with soap and water or wax and grease remover/cleaner then prime and paint.
