Paint Remover for j/y markers?

[Touring23]

Salvage yards out here in Washington write their stock numbers on their parts with yellow paint; I want to remove these scribblings from my parts. I've tried traditional paint thinner, "Bug&Tar Remover", and even Mother's Polish with a drill and disk. Nada. I can't use abrasives, want to protect the aluminum from scratches.
What do I need? Acetone? Turpentine? TIA

Acetone mixed with MEK (Methyl Ethyl Ketone) will remove most paints from metal. Just don't put it in a plastic bottle, or you'll have a puddle of melted plastic!

Thanks! I was looking at some "aircraft paint remover" that I believe had those compounds. I'll give it a try.
Cheers

Home Depot sells a product called "Goof-off" that works good for removing paint without hurting the finish.It costs about $3 for a little can.

somebody makes a can called paint and decal remover im not sure who makes it. but you spray it on the paint and loke 2 minuts later just wipe it off and it will be all nice and clean

Safety solvent or Brake-clean will also work.

BOWMAN I THINK

Yep, coincidently I saw the Goof-Off yesterday at Home Depot. Bowman doesn't ring a bell. I'll look for it while I'm at the parts store today. I tried the "Bug &Tar Remover", that's sort of like safety solvent, I reckon <scratches head>.
Thanks everyone!
