Yes you can. Just clean it really good with degreaser like Simple Green or Super Clean and take a Scotch-brite pad and scuff the paint. Clean it with wax/paint remover that also helps with adheasion to remove all the dust and junk and spray away. Prepping is the key to painting anything really nice.

You will want to use compressed air and blow out all teh dust and water behind the stiffening framing under there as when you are spraying the paint any dust, oil , or moilture behind there can be blown out into you fresh paint.
