if your looking to get rid of overspray, aircraft stripper is not such a good idea, cause any paint under that overspray you can consider ruined as well.

Re: paint stripper/ remover
if its lite, maybe try some lacquer thinner, wipe on and wipe off real quick, or you can even try wetsanding it with like 2k grit paper, or a quick scuff with a scotch brite pad, it may dull the paint around it but it wont take it off if you go over it lightly, if its heavy, and depending on what kind of material it is, if its spray paint, real paint, clearcoat, etc etc, paint shops sell certain cleaners that will remove it. for example if its spray paint,you can use lacquer thinner real quick, or a chemical called First Kleen, made by dupont will take the spray paint right off with damaging the underlying clear and paint.its rather expensive though. clear coat or primer will require a heavier cutting material.
