Sand it smooth and use any spray primer (the dollar a can stuff at walmart will work fine) let it dry sand lightly and paint it let dry ready to use.

After the primer I would hit it with a cote of enamel. Any colour or colours your heart desires. Mine is Mauve and purple ( yea really mauve, I just liked the cap colour on the spray bomb). Any spray bombs at your local whatevermart will do. Your imagination is your only limit.
