Is it best to hand sand the casing and what paint should I use?

Zinc Chromate primer.....

There are many paints available to match the original made by Tempo.

And they have gotten VERY expensive! I'd go with the primer and antifoul "Trilux"

Thanks for all the help. I just finished sanding and priming with Zinc Chromate and painted with Mercury black engine paint and it looks great. Put on 3 coats.
