Removing paint fron rubber

Hi, I have a 1988 GTA with the wrap around rear wing, I was lucky enough to find a original wing off a car with only 35000 miles on it and the rubber on the wing was not cracked and it is in exhalant shape, however it came with the rear glass and the guy stored it with the wing on the ground and as the result of the weight it cracked some of the paint, so my question is what is the best way to remove all of the paint .............. ?

The only way I'd try to remove paint from that rubber spoiler is sand it off, Defiantly wouldn't use chemicals or a sand blaster.......
