Default removing Polypropylene from cast iron fire

Hi all
Hope some one can help; my son's friend after playing in the snow put
his gloves on top of our gas fired cast iron stove to dry out.
I was alerted to this by the smell of the melting gloves.
My immediate thoughts were to get as much of the pool of plastic off
the fire ASAP.
the problem now is it has left a thin smear of plastic (polypropylene)
on the cast iron and try as I can I cant get it off.
Any ideas or anyone know of a solvent.
I'm guessing its polypropylene as I checked a pair of similar gloves.

Cheers
Rob
