I sanded mine down with 800 grit. rattle can sandable primer black. sanded it again with 1000. and then did two coats of low gloss black in a rattle can. It came out very nicely. Of course touch up is simple!

As long as you use a low gloss or flat color, rattle can is fine. I would have been nervous and probably used more steps with a gloss finish.
