Try several different paint removers on an inconspicuous area near the back or bottom of the set. After you get the paint off, you might wanna try going over the bakelite w/an automotive rubbing/polishing compound, followed by a couple of applications of pure carnauba wax. Again, test ANY cleaners/waxes on a small unnoticable area. But I've cleaned up Bakelite w/my method, & its a LOT of work & elbow grease involved, but the cases I've done positively GLOW.
