Default Stripping paint from lexan

Searched, couldn't find anything. I used some Krylon Fusion on the outside of a body, but it didn't stick, so now I need to strip it off and try something else. How do I safely remove the paint without harming the lexan? I know brakefluid works on hard plastic bodies, but what about lexan?

hey..theres an easier way instead of scrubbing for ten min....you can just get Easy-Off and just spray all over where theres paint and jus wait 30 min - 1 hr...then just rinse...and if u want to do it again for better results..u can do that too

Fsakolor green, red, yellow and a pinch of black gives you a pretty garn good flat green that wont flake off lexan, it can be brushed on or airbrushed.
