Many decades ago as a kid, did some odd jobs for a guy that owned a mobile home park and had several rentals, including some oldie oldie oldies. He gave me enamal to use on them, but they were the ones prior to the vertical seamed siding. And I had to clean them first. He gave me this liquidy acid that brushed on like snot that stripped the old paint off in seconds, then I had to scrub them down with soap and water. Paint went on good, stayed for years. I'd be surprised if the siding used today isn't powder coated, given today's technologies. Don't forget to seal coat the roof too. They're prone to leaking at the seams over time. Seal coat came/comes in 5 gallon buckets, put it on after washing the roof, and stand along the edges using a push broom so don't fall through.
That acid stuff I used, think was called "Stripper", and wonder if they even make it anymore. Get that stuff on you and "Woo Hoo Hoo" as you dance around. Nasty stuff. Felt like was on fire, no joke. The old paint literally bubbled off in seconds.
