    if the paint thinner does not work, try using brake cleaner.

    thats a good option
    the worst case scenario is a rag with aircraft remover on it, or more likely, a q-tip with aircraft remover, just apply VERY carefully and I promise the paint will come off, haha.
    You could also use turpentine or turpenoid and rub rub rub. it'll come off, its justa question of time.
    you could also wet sand with 1500 grit for a while
