Default Vinyl Paint removal

So I went through a ricer stage in my life and wanted to paint the interior of my car and ummm... I grew up when I went into the army... came back and realized wow what a dumbass idea. So heres my problem... I got most of this vinyl paint off with fingernail polish remover. Now im stuck at certain parts of the vinyl where this paint WILL NOT come off no matter how hard I scrub it with fingernail polish! Does anyone have any idea how to get this stuff off so I can finally stop looking at it! Please let me know... heres this pics of the remaining paint...

repaint or swap with another member maybe? I would suggest using something a little stronger such as acetone but you should research on if it will effect the original vinyl cover at all.

Keep rubbing and pray. Acetone IS nail polish remover.

Could use sometime to rub that is slightly more abrasive or even a fine steel-wool.
