Removed screen paint from plastic HDBE crates with sulfuric acid

Hi,

I was looking for a thiner or paint removal material for the printing of names done on all/any of the products made of high density PE, well, I couldn't find it, but I tried sulfuric acid 70% which did the job...
now my worry is that will there be any problem to the product ( cracking,early colour fading, or any kind of quality related issues) in the near future?

guys please help...
