Default Removing dried latex paint from stained trim

Painting a window yesterday, I accidentally got a bit of white latex
primer on some surrounding trim, light brown stained pine (just stain,
no lacquer, etc). (basically, the edge of the brush grazed the trim in
one spot, so it's not like a drip that can be easily chipped off. Is
there any way to remove this paint, short of sandpaper or a chisel?
Tried one of those "Mr. Clean Magic Erasers", NOGO. I'm wondering if
there's any solvent that might work?

TIA

Very hot water...let the paint soak a little...it may then come off
with your fingernail.
