Basically prepare it the same way as mild steel. Rub it down (wet and dry will do fine if that's what you have) sufficiently to "key" the primer. Then apply a good quality etch primer as the makers instructions. Some etch primers require a further undercoat and some do not but once these coats are completed, you can rub down again (I would do this without water), de-grease and paint in colour.
