screwed up painting my glovebox....

ok, i used some interior paint on my glovebox (I plan on converting my tan dash to black) and decided to use my glovebox as a reference point. i got a little bit of overspray and runs on it now. so, i go to the local hardware store and asked them to give me some real fine grit sandpaper....i know nothing about sanpaper so the guy tells me to use 220 grit. so i sand over the painted glovebox and painted it again....scratches EVERYWHERE. what can i do now?

Wetsand.

Goto an Autozone or simular and pick up some 600 grit, then move up to 1000, and finally to 1500. Back to normal.
