IML: Removing paint from a light lens

[<pnkmoore@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Does anyone have advice about removing automobile paint from a light lens? 
During the recent repaint of my '69 Buick vehicle, the license plate light 
lens that's under the truck "lip" over the license plate was painted along 
with the rest of the trunk.    I want to clean it off without disrupting the 
lens, which appears to be plastic.  I took it off today and tried nail 
polish remover and lighter fluid (not at the same time) to no avail.  I 
hesitated to try paint thinner lest the plastic melt.

(ahem) This may happen again when I get my Imperial painted, so there's some 
relevant content.  I don't want to ask the Buick club.  The IML always seems 
to have better advice.

Anyone?  Anyone?
