Ive bought regular primer but think im gonna have to take them back and get some etch primer instead, but im thinking getting nitromors aswell and just strip all the paint off?

refurbed mine, they were in Really bad condition. First time, I just spent a few hours scrubbing them in the bathtub with dishsoap and scrub brushes and then finished them off by spraying a coat of clear on them and baking them at 250* for about 10 minutes, and they started like this

second time, I sandblasted them, then powdercoated the centers matte black, and the hoops gloss white.
