Aluminium paint prep advice

I want to paint this

What is the advice of the Mud paint gurus?

Nothing?

Dan,
Scuff it, prime with Etch primer and paint to the desire color. Obviously, you will need to clean it also with a wax and grease removed also. Assuming that it is bare metal. If it is painted on already or powdercoated, then it is a different story.
