red fades first.
blue fades last.

the recommendation is "do vinyl first".
its often cheaper than most paint jobs, plus if you don't like it, you can just peel it off.
but in this case, because you are not repainting the entire plane...

you have two options...prep sand the entire aircraft, mask and paint the graphics, then clearcoat the whole plane to put the gloss back and seal everything.

or, use an enamel, like One-Shot, with an adhesion promoter, to paint right over the existing finish with no prep required other than degreasing, cleaning and final wipe.
(thats how I painted the Butterfly Boat)
