Re-Painting "Nice" Phone Dial Rims

I just received a nice set of 15X7 phone dials as a second set for my ‘87NA, and after a quick bit of cleaning its pretty obvious that they’re in great shape - with what appears to be the “factory finish” nice and bright, and for the most part not dented, gouged, or scratched.

I want to repaint these rims a different color - and am wondering how to proceed with wheels that really don’t need any additional cleaning - and the factory finish has just a bit of “tooth” so my sense is that no sanding will be needed prior to repainting.

Given the above, my sense is that I should just go ahead with a final de-grease, clean, rinse, and dry - then proceed with a non-filling primer, paint, and clear coat. Does this sound about right?
