Twice now Ive tried to paint a piece of metal and always get fish eyes. Whats the best way to clean the metal before painting? I have prepped sanded and wiped down before painting but still keeps happening.

What are you wiping it down with?
Its the front piece of a star wars yoke the part the overlay goes on. I'm using krylon fusion on it and I have not primed as directions say I don't need to. I have access to thinner and brake cleaner as I work at a car dealership.
I sanded it a bit and repainted and it looks better but the fisheye are still visible but have filled in.Should I sand it down completely or just live with it as the overlay will cover it up?
Fusion is for plastic.
Yeah it says wood, metal, plastic, and more on the label ;-)
any recommendations?
Heres a pic best I could do atm I assume its fisheye but I'm not exactly an expert Im just the photo guy. I guess it looks pretty good maybe I'm just being to anal?
@Cadilacman I have access to a spraybake I actually cooked the piece I just painted.
