sanding.....with a fine gritt sand paper like 600 + or some paint thinner and start over again. Don't put the paint thinner on the plastic. Just put it on the towel and wipe the paint off.

In my time when I did some modeling we used brake fuild to take the paint off the plastic, just soak the thing into the brake fluid for a while and all the paint came off. Since your piece is already screwed I think you don't have anything to loose. Buy a few cans and soak the cover for 1 or 2 days.

Unless someone has an other solution this is one thing you might consider.
