Remove paint from headlamps

Hey guys, I just finished painting my headlamp but I got some paint on parts of the chrome that I wanted exposed. Is there anything I can use to clean up the paint overspray? I considered using nail polish remover but I'm afraid that it may eat into the plastic. Any suggestions? Thanks.

Just an FYI for others... I used some non-acetone nail polish remover and it works pretty well. I just dabbed a little on a rag and gently scraped off the paint. Be careful, though, b/c it will rub off the chrome if you rub it too hard.
