John:  Checked with someone who is in the auto paint business.  His
recommendation:  in an inconspicuous location, rub a small spot with
lacquer thinner.  If it is acrylic (lacquer ?), it will disolve the paint. 
If enamel, it won't affect it immediately but if you do it long enough, it
will degrade it.
