What was the original finish? colored or galvanized aluminum? If it was a color like green or white I would go to Hardware Hank and have them color their best latex in the color you want then pressure wash the metal so you get the dirt and any loose paint off, wait three days and spray the new paint on. You can buy it in 5 gallon pails or gallon ones Make sure there is no dew before you start and quit early enough so it can dry before evening dew. I have painted buildings for 19 years and can go to the first ones which still look good. The latex will harden with the sun beating down on it so it is very long lasting. Certain colors will fade but I have seen new colored steel fade also. If you are working with rusty metal you need to spray a rusty metal primer sold by Rustoleum then wait 5 days before the top coat. If it rains before the paint dries it will wash off but normally a couple hours in the sun will dry it.
