Nail polish remover, and gentle scrubbing with a non-scratch soft brush.

Good luck
If it's latex paint, its possible to gently scrape it off with your fingernail or a plastic scraper. I'd be gentle and also avoid metal to not scratch your faucet finish.
Barkeepers Friend should do the trick. It brings out a nice shine in any faucet. Find it in the cleaning aisle near the comet and Ajax. Choose the powder. not the liquid.
Your fingernail. Or paint on paint takes off paint
Usually just some soft scrub and agression will get it off. Also can try Goof Off, or very careful razor blade.
I would NOT use finger nail polish to take paint off of a faucet. I just tried that on a polished nickel faucet and the soaked cotton pad (with fingernail polish remover) took about a silver dollar dull spot on my brand new kitchen faucet!!! It took the finish right off!!😂
