uhh, wont that eat the plastic too. you need to use some NON-acetone nail polish remover. or if all else fails wet sand them with like 1500 or 2000 grit sandpaper then buff and polish them

either way your going to get that streaked plastic burn...maybe... depending on how much paint is on there.... i would say just wet sand the tail light down after you get the paint off your tail lights... dry it.. get a quality can of clear coat and go to it.... will look new too 
there's some write ups on that .. just not sure where i saw it...

I said used GAS.....I did it on a friend car. One of the OG in the hot rod told me...
I did on a CRX headlight and bumper light. Just take a rag or a paper towel and wet it with a little gasoline and it should come off easly.
Then clean after the paint comes off then used car wash soap and clean it .
Thats pretty much it.
Save your Money....Gas work fine....
