it depends what you're removing and how dried the paint is, different kinds of paint can react very differently
if the paint isn't cured you want something similar to the solvents its made with, so alcohol or even just warm water works fine for latex and similar water based paints, but you want mineral spirits or paint thinner/turpentine for oil paints
after they're fully cured then you probably need a chemical made to attack the solids that are the actual 'paint' part of paint, usually called a paint stripper and those are the more nasty ones, they break the chemical bonds in the paint up so it turns into a gooey mess and you can scrape it off, but they aren't really for simple cleaning like this because they need time to sit on the paint and work
google says the can says Water Based on it so alcohol and a bit of scrubbing probably work fine as long as it hasn't been there more than a couple days
