Do th is until the paint comes off but if you feel the paint getting soft then quit for a few min. Once you get it all off just polish the surface.

On a cured clear coat this shouldnt harm anything.
I don't want to be putting any kind of thinner on my paint. I've already managed to soften the paint on an inconspicuous part of the hood whilst fixing paint chips with some Langka, so I'm proceeding with extra caution here. We're talking about a brand-spanking new $80,000 automobile here, not a 1991 Geo Metro.
