it doesnt really matter as much for the paint but more so the prep.
good sanding, adhesive promoter, primer, paint, clear (?)

if you want it to stick use some two stage real paint with primer underneath

But, more realistically, using some 200-300 grit sandpaper will take it right off. Then primer, sand and paint after making sure you clean it off with wax and grease or water N soap mixture.
