Delamination repair/assistance

Well both of my camaros have the delamination where the pain is peeling from the primer. Is there a reccomended way of repairing this? does the car need to be stripped to bare metal befor repainting? If not how far does it need to be stripped? any advice would be GREATLY appreciated, I finally have a second car so I can afford the time to get it painted. Thanks!

any panel thats peeling needs to be striped to primer to prevent the new paint from peeling too.

I just read up alot about how the paint and the primer were both causes for the delamination on the cars that were painted in Van Nuys. And wasnt sure if I needed to strip the primer off completely to avaid it from peeling again later.......
