beez, u are 100% correct in that regard. sanding the letters off.
strip it, spray it, sand it.
much like oreos - twist it, dip it, lick it, eat it.

Now I feel like oreo's Mmmmmm Yummy!!
If your too scared to damage the paint by sanding the letters after you paint (which you wont) you can always sand the letters before you paint and then apply PVA gluee over the letters with a paint brush in a mildly thick coat. Once you have painted the glue will just peel straight off!
you wont damage the letters.
just use a really light sand paper.
The paint can ****ed up on me and left splogdes so i had to sand a bit of it back
