What removes dried paint?

Will denatured alcohol damage painted surfaces?

This powerful solvent can dissolve paint on almost any surface, including wood, concrete, sheetrock, metal, some plastics, and even clothing. Because latex is soluble with denatured alcohol, forgo the use of latex gloves when using this product.
