Removing Numbers Without Removing Paint?

[trainstamp]

I recently purchased a new Bachmann GP9 and I wish to renumber it. What is the best way to remove numbers without taking off the base paint as well? I know that brake fluid usually works well to take off all the paint but I'm reluctant to try brake fluid on the numbers for fear it will take the paint with it. The base color is yellow so it will probably not take as much rubbing like darker colors would. I hope someone that has found a way that works well will share their successful method.
