Any solvent that would remove it would most likely dissolve the case first. With a router bit and router base for a Dremel tool, you could probably take it down to the case surface and minimize its appearance. Sometimes, depending on the surface preparation that was done when the epoxy was applied, the remaining thin layer may chip off with a plastic tool. No easy way.
