Removing paint from in wall speaker frame and grilles

I get the lucky task of repainting the bedroom. I currently have a set of IW250s ( I think) and both the white frame and the grilles were painted when i painted the room the last time. I cant leave them with the color they are now cuz the paint colors do not match.

In hindsight I wish I had not painted them and left them white.

What have others done to get the paint of the frame of the speaker and the grille?

I did soak them a little bit in soap and water, then scrubbed them while using a spray on paint rmover from the home depot. A little elbow grease and TADA, the paint was off.

Then I bought some white Krylon spray paint meant for plastic. It dries in 15 minutes and I applied several very thin coats and it worked great! The speakers are now back on the wall and they look FAB!
