Denatured alcohol is the first thing I try. Wipe it on in several applications, but do not continue to rub, since alcohol will tend to soften the lacquer somewhat. You may end up with blushing on the surface that will polish out. Let it dry completely before polishing.
If that fails to remove it all, I next use lacquer retarder. Retarder will soften the lacquer more than alcohol, which means it may take several days for it to harden back up. Do not attempt to manipulate the surface until it does.
