Put it in brake fluid while the paint is still new, take it out 3-4 days later and the paint will wipe off if you hold it under a water tap. You can put in there for only 2 days, but I put the body in brake FLUID (not CLEANER) for 3 or 4 days just to be sure. good luck on your next paint job, remember, heat the can and always use either Tamiya or airbrush :)

So I guess you hav'nt read the FAQ ey? You're supposed to let primer harden for a full 24 hours :) . Just re-do it and I bet it'll came out very nice, good luck :)
