I wouldn't use acetone or lacquer thinner on it - they may eat the plastic. If mineral spirits won't take it off, try some SEM 39913 Bumper Stripper (available at auto parts places.) It's designed to strip paint off of plastic car bumpers. Spray it on, let it sit for a few minutes, wipe the paint off.

Once the paint is off you'll need to clean and polish the plastic. I've used 3M's Plastic Cleaner and Plastic Polish with good results.
