Do you mean the textured finish??

Use high build primer.

Should be sanded down so the texture is no longer there, then primed and painted.

It'll peel if not

Never had any peeling on the rub strips i done on both my Mk4 Astra's. Good prep, some high build, paint, then lacquer. Held up pretty well even with the jet wash.
