well if you want a quick fix just clean off all loose paint and spray or brush on any high temp paint.
if you want it to last get off all old paint so you down to alluminium, key well,spray on etch primer, after about an hour depending on ambient temp spray or brush on your high temp paint.
watercooled are easier as there are no awkward fins to rub down and don't get as hot as air cooled so you can paint with any good quality 2k paint, did mine almost 2 years gone and never flaked or discoloured yet.
