How do I prep "spots" for painting.....not a Mopar!

[bandit67]

Guys, I have offered to repaint a Honda for my niece. I have painted several cars before, but they were completely primered, blocked, and sealed. So, they were all sealed with one color before I laid on the top coat. As you see, there are several spots where the top coat is gone, been retouched, flaking off. I am not planning to spend hours, blocking, prepping for a show room finish, it's just a beater I wish to make all one color. How do I sand and primer the spots, or do I need to primer, in order to have the top coat look somewhat even and the spots not bleeding thru. Its going back with the light blue metallic OEM color so would a grey primer be what's best...thanks

As you know the 2nd paint job had a crappy prep.
Now you have to take those spots out to the point they stop peeling.
Like eldubb said feather and prime.
