Ya never know how it wound up like that, maybe  a kid had it and was trying to redo it. The drips marks are rough though. 

I repainted some radiator covers for my home and used some Rustoleum in a can. I avoided the drips, many coats and thin coats to avoid putting on enough to run.

I bet you get it to look nice.
