Hi, dog812!

Lacquer thinner applied with soft cloths and/or #0000 steel wool might also do the trick.

Just a thought...

Thanks!

If those kinds of thinners don't seem to be effective, then you could also try some wet/dry sandpaper of say 320 grit or above with either water or paint thinner as a lubricant to see if that might work too.

Thanks!
