Default Removing Tile Paint

My sister-in-law tried to do a quick Carole Simllie type makeover of
her bathroom and decided to paint the existing tiles with tile paint.
Whilst the tiles look good, the bath doesn't as she managed to get the
tile paint all over it.

Any ideas on hoe to remove it? The bath is your average plastic type
bath.

I thought of trying white spirit or even some steel wool. The
scatching caused by the latter can't look any worse than white paint
all over a mushroomish coloured bath.

Cheers,
Alan

I recently repainted some tiles in the bathroom of my new flat - the
previous owner had painted them beige.

I didn't get much on the (plastic, beige) bath, but the few spots I did
drop were easily removed by one of these:
