Acetone and then polish with Novous plastic polish (note, apply acetone at your own risk)

Or scrape carefully and polish with Novous

yea... acetone will do it - but it will also melt\white haze anything made of most plastics.

one way or the other its going to be a risky operation!

Try 91% rubbing alcohol. I know it will take magic marker off the inside of a cd.

FYI- any "melt" will be minimal, the solvent just evaporates too quickly..

It will haze the plastic, but that's what the plastic polish is for...

Brasso can also be used to polish out scratches in plastics:
It is used to polish CDs, DVDs, screens, and pools in order to repair scratches. It is a mild solvent and an extremely fine abrasive, so when applied to the reflective surface of the disc and rubbed radially (in straight lines between the edge and center), it can smooth scratches and reduce their effect.[4][5][6]
Brasso can also be used on Lego minifigures to remove markings.[7]
Brasso has also been used by watch enthusiasts to polish scratches out of acrylic crystals on watches.[8]
Brasso can be used to clean Nintendo Entertainment System cartridges to remove dirt buildup that may have accumulated on the metal contacts over the years. This helps to create a better connection between the game cartridge and the 72-Pin connector inside the console, reducing the chances of glitching or freezing caused by a poor connection.
Brasso is used by Australian Defence Force personnel as well as Australian Army Cadets to polish brass parts of the ceremonial belt, and also polish parts of the drill cane. Brasso is widely used by US Armed Forces personnel to take scratches out of brass fittings, particularly brass belt buckles.
Brasso can be successfully used to take minor (white) heat marks out of French polished wooden surfaces. The fine abrasive cuts through the surface and allows the solvent into the wax and lacquer layer. The surface should be properly cleaned and waxed after this treatment.
