Penny wise & pound foolish?
My personal feeling is that any type of severe treatment to the painting ground can only lead to problems in the long run. The KISS methodology seems the wise path to follow. If it were me, I would bite the bullet, restretch and start anew.
Also, I am a strong advocate of color studies to circumvent the sort of problems you seem to be incurring. I believe the final painting should not be attempted until the painting has been fully realized in the artist's mind.
I would also suggest reading the two books authored by Harold Speed on drawing and painting. They are published by Dover Books and in my opinion are two of the finest books ever written on the subject of painting.
