They make a product called paint remover... It removes paint. try to get a weak stuff as you can though and clean it off as soon as your done so it's doesn't eat away at your plastic.

It would depend on the type of paint. For model paint, if is an enamel then try either the enamel thinner or mineral sprits. If its a laquer or acrylic try a paint remover, but try it on an unexposed area to see if it eats the plastic. Another option is brake fluid, it usually wont attack plastic but it sure takes off paint of any type.

I'll take pics today before I will clean it.

Brake fluids? I got extra.. I'll try that first...

Oh yeah as long as you guys don't laugh at the pics I'll post them up.
