you could use alchohal and dissolve the paint on the body, then repaint it.

Well there are different percents of alchoal. Try like 90% or above. Let it soak for a good 30 to 60 minutes, Then wipe with a rag. It should work. To get the debris inside the cracks that will be left over use an air compressor,tooth pick, or water.
