Default How can I remove paint from plastic?

I have a laptop which has silver paint on the edges. It looked really
nice when it was new, but now the paint is being worn off. I want to
just remove the paint that is left over.

I tried Acetone, but it seems to dissolve the plastic along with the
paint. Is there something else that would work?


try a little bit of lye based oven cleaner, but spray it onto a plate
and apply it with a brush, nasty stuff.
