Default removing paint from stock eg sideskirt

previous owner had the car painted, and painted the black sideskirts. rocks have started chipping it away, so i've got little black spots here and there. was curious if there's anyway to remove the paint without hurting the plastic sideskirts underneith.

also... i've got a smear of white paint on my tail light. is there anyway to remove the little smudge without hurting the plastic tail?

and again... i've got a little drop of paint on my driver side mirror... on the plastic outer shell. is there anyway to remove that without hurting the plastic?

lol three questions all basically the same...
any help?

thanks all!

Use some plastic safe aircraft stripper for the molding then use some trim paint to touch them up....(make sure you take them off the car first)

For the paint smear just use some laquer thinner on a rag
