Default I Messed Up Bad! Help Please!

I was removing the bonnet rock protector sticky film from the front of my hood and all was going well until about half way, when I heard a troubling tearing noise. Long story short I've managed to rip off the top layer of paint (the colour layer) and have exposed it down to the black (primer?) layer beneath. I've just re stuck the section that peeled off the paint and left it as is.

I have two questions. One, what the hell do I do now? If I leave it as is, will rust form quickly? In which case I need to paint over my **** up very soon.

Secondly, can I fix my **** up using the spray cans you get from supercheap/repco and masking tape etc. In which case, any advice?
