Michael,
Another way to clean dried paint: Brush Cleaner, available at any home improvement store (or Wal Mart, I suppose). This is the best stuff to have around the house. Not just for artists, but anyone. It's great for removing paint, even from brushes that have dried, caked-on paint. I've used it to get creosote off my boat, and for removing silicone caulk. You'll wonder how you got along without it.
Unlike paint stripper, Brush cleaner is safe to handle, and won't destroy plastics.
