You didnt need to rub all the paint off. If you've got a good finish the first time, you can use something like 800 grit paper, and put a key in the surface of the paint to give the new paint something to "hold onto" as such.
Saying this, i only found out after id totally rubbed down my DTM mirros and re-painted them
