You might also try some lighter fluid. The kind used to refil a Zipo
lighter. There is a product called something like "GOO off" or some
such thing. It smells exactly light lighter fluid. As George said,
use it sparingly. However it evaporates very quickly so I don't think
it will damage the acrylic.
Another thing to try is a very mild buffing compound like "Finessit" (sp).
