All of the answers are excellent, but I am lazy.
I have spray painted everything under the sun.
Metal, pottery, wood, baskets and anything else you can think of.
Buy a spray paint specifically for metal and as long as your piece is clean, just spray it. You may need to do a second coat if it has trouble covering. The first coat will act as the primer and the second as the finish coat.
Home Depot or Lowes have cans in many colors of metal spray paint. Good Luck.

use a spray which sticks easily to plastic or other paint. Most craft sprays will do this anyway. check the instructions before you buy it. Ive done this in the past to tidy up serving trays. I added a coat of yacht Varnish (hard wearing) and its indestructible
or you can try these:
1. remove the old paint with Nitromorse (paint it on, it melts
the paint, you scrape it off)
2. rough the bottom coat with fine sandpaper so the new
paint has something to anchor to
3. Use a primer coat - that's what its for

Assuming you are using acrylic Lacquer or Enamel you will need to sand the stand first with a wet/dry sandpaper and use some soap (Sunlight if you can get it) Wet the sandpaper then apply the soap then rub/sand the stand. It should make the metal nice and smooth. Make sure you continually wipe the stand over with water whilst sanding it. Then apply a primer/undercoat. You should then be able to put any colour you want on it. Hope this helps

Sand it lightly (make sure you wear a mask as lead could be in that stuff) and then prime it with an all purpose primer.
Always prime and paint in a well ventilated area and wait at least 24 hours before painting over surface so primer is good and dry.

Use some fine sand paper to ruff the surface to be painted and prime your prodject with a good primer you should not have any problem with the new paint sticking.

Sand the whole thing lightly - there is special sandpaper for paint - then spray with primer, then new paint.

all you have to do is use a primer first and your paint is sure to stick or either ruff up the surface with sand paper first and your paint will for sure stick
