Paint can work, the trick is sand it down to bare metal then apply a good self etching primer, the self etch primer is the trick. Then top coat with paint. You'd be amazed how well paint holds to metal with self etch primer. Find a high quality self etch primer, try 3M products. The real good self etch comes as a 2 part primer, you can also find spray cans but the best is the 2 part.
