[RE-wrenches] Removing graffiti from modules

[Ray]

I've got a can of GooGone Graffiti remover, that starts softening spray 
paint in 30 seconds, but obviously, it is really strong. I'd only use it 
with no anti-reflective coating and put masking tape over all the edge 
seals.  I've used a plastic scour pad, like those safe for Teflon pans.  
What losers, at least they didn't throw a rock through them.  Do you 
have any pictures?
