Default Repainting Cub Cadet 122- paint type questions

I'm going to be repainting a Cub Cadet 122 that someone painted red. I want to paint it in the original colors but I don't know what type of paint I should use. There is a key fob in the color of the tractor that says "BASF Inmont Automotive Paints". I'm not sure if this is an enamel or an acrylic or what else it could be.

Can I sand this paint down a bit and then spray on top of it or do I need to sand it down to bare metal? Also, what type of paint should I use? Cub Cadet sells the original enamel, but how does that perform compared to an entry level automotive paint such as PPG Omni?

Does anyone have any tips related to spraying?



Thanks,
Marshall
