It’s possible this is a factory applied finish and may be cellulose based, used mainly in such situations because it dries quickly. The safest solution would be to use an adhesive primer like Zinsser, which is water-based and unlikely to cause any problems.
Or, you could try an isolating primer like Barcoat that reacts with the surface to form a bond. This works well in some cases but can react adversely with some paints. It’s wise, therefore, to use with caution and do a small trial area first.
