What?! Paint Thinner?! Paint thinner is what RUINS plastic windows... it'll make it foggy and fugg it up...

try really light sanding, or try taking a pic and see if you could pic the spot of paint out followed by rubbing compound

Paint thinner will eat the plastic.

I'm talking from experience here.

all you have to do is sand the area down with the highest grit you can get your hands on and then polish out the scratches with tamiya compound. be gentle since you dont want to crack it in half. ive used this technique to get rid of paint on the windshield as well as scratches that occur in the packaging. i know it sounds scary but it really does work. you then use a good wax on the window after you have painted it correctly. should be almost as good as new if you take your time and do it right. good luck
