Try paint thinner.
I would use a paint stripper.
I usually just peel the dried latex off. Pick at it with a flat screwdriver to lift a portion and peel away. If the paint is too thin, hot water and dish detergent, let it soak for a while and it will scrub right out.
You might have to go to a paint stripper if other methods don't work.
I can usually cut and peel most of off. If there is any left, got water and some dish soap will loosen the rest. Stay safe!
