I would really never advise soaking any plastic in anyform of spirit thinners apart from acrylic as it destroys the plastic as well as the paint! I must be honest though i had some old phoenix missles that were painted about 5 yrs previously and needed to be redone for another model I soaked them overnight in brake fluid and in the morning the paint just fell off leaving a lovely unmarked surface (beware though dont use some of the specialised citroen stuff as that doesnt work at all!)
