Painting plastic

Initially I bought some of that vinyl cammo wrap to cover my 110cc Bravo but I gave up on it. Two many intricate bends to work with. This stuff may work great on a flat surface but not on this thing!

So my next idea is to paint it. Krylon or Rustoelum makes a paint called Fusion for plastic I've used before but the paint is flaking off this thing so I'd like to primer it first then sand it down where the paint is flaking off.

I do not want to remove the paint! Done that with the bumper on a Ford Explorer and it was a mess.

I'm thinking of taking my high pressure washer to it to try to knock off anymore loose paint then prime it.

Can I use ordinary sandable primer? Then Rustoelum white gloss paint over top of it?

I'm thinking of using some of that flexible bumper paint and maybe just go over it with Rustoelum white gloss.

What's my best option?
