I just soaked them in water for 24 hours and the paint scraped right off with a plastic knife. The Warner’s on the right was the one with all the paint on it.

So I was back home for Christmas and my mom had a bunch of my antique bottles painted. Is there a way to safely get the paint off, maybe a paint thinner of some sort. Im hoping the paint hasn’t damaged the glass.

Good ole Mom. She loves ya anyway... even if you don't really appreciate her artwork.
