I don't use enamels but my friend does. He always use oven cleaner and it works for him.

Ovencleaner? Have some old Prince August figures painted when I was 8-9 years old (that would be five or six years ago, right Peter?) that I could try on some day.

Hello
Most enamels are acrylic based solvent paints, exactly the same as fingernail varnishes. All fingernail varnish removers will work very well with the additional advantage of being relatively gentle on your health and also to your figures.
I know that because right now I work in the paints section of a company producing that stuff
Cheers
