Best paint for exterior painted railings?

Want something to last and not too worried about the cost, the railings are already painted but flaking in some small areas which reveals they are already galvanised. I am not going back to bare metal but basically rubbing down and painting over?

Hammerite Smooth will do the job. Just watch the recoat times and use the right thinners to clean the brushes.
Any language construct that forces such insanity in this case should be abandoned without regrets. –

If the railings are galvanised then you need to use the correct Hammerite - the standard type does not adhere well to galvanised.

It is only 1% that has chipped flaked, but thanks anyway
