I sprayed mine, turned out pretty good, 4 months and there's still no scratches or chips. I used halfords satin black bumper paint and a bit of decent plastic primer.

I was referring to the vinyl not sticking, but as it happens you need to do the same for spraying.

Yeah, sand back anything that is loose, then give it a wipe down to ensure that there is no dust either.
