Scuff the **** out of it. Use sand paper, a scotch brite pad, or what I used was a surfacing disc on my angle grinder.

just follow all the instructions on the can.
basically you want to sand paper the old paint. wipe it clean. put first coat. let dry. sand lightly. clean. apply second coat. and so on. the directions will be on the can. read and follow them. the biggest mistake people make when applying the stuff is that they get lazy on the prep and it peels off.
I have had mine in the location for about 3 yrs and it still looks good.
