[SalesForce] Hide Picklist value on profile

I have one pick list field with 5 value on custom object. Now i wanted to hide 2 value out of 5 value one of my profile "ABC".

I have created one record type for that and hide that value and assign to new page layout and also set this in page layout assignment and set also this record type as default on respected profile.

Now the problem is when i create records then it's showing me 3 value that is correct as per the above settings but while i referring to old records with this profile then it's showing me all the 5 picklist value instead of that 3 value.

Please suggest how can i hide that value from the old records.

Thanks in advance for the resolution

It sounds like to me that you need to update the recordtypeID field on all the old records and that should fix it. You can use data loader to mass export and then update the records.
