Default question on paint removal

I used spray paint (smoke color) on my headlights which are cleared to tint them. I'm trading them for some with HID's and need to remove the paint. Will Acetone melt the headlight or is there something else I can use to remove this without damaging the light?

Nail polish remover will remove it

however if you let it stand it will burn your lenses, u can try rubbing alcohol also but ALOT of scrubbing will be needed

good luck paul.
