A few questions for you pros:

I'm freshening up a newly aquired well-used headache rack and side rails.

I'm not sure if it's original coating is paint or powdercoat. Is there a way for an idiot like me to tell the difference?

I'm planning on sanding it smooth (not completely down to bare metal), then priming as needed and painting it with something similar to Rustoleum. This does not need to be a professional job and does not need to look perfect. I need to keep it low budget, but want it hold up relatively well.

If the original surface is powdercoated, are there any negative forseeable consequences with simply painting over it?

Thanx for any insight

Bruce
