It's been 8 months since then and it looks the same as the day I did it. This is a very quick way to accidentally sand down to your primer though.

Any pics of what you did? Maybe before and after?

I would suggest wetsanding with 2000 to 3000 grit but damn it looks like your base has been damaged also so yeah...it needs to be repainted altogether.
