How to remove paint stains from brass mailboxes
Not the outdoor ones, but ones that are in a store and rented out to customers.

Where I work we occasionally get graffiti on our painted cinder block walls. We use "graffiti remover" from the Home Depot. It is in an aerosol can and dissolves the graffiti (usually permanent marker tho)

Paint thinner will be fine provided your brass doesn't have any sort of weird finish on it.
If that doesn't work, you can get a bit more aggressive by using acetone.
May I ask why you rent out mail boxes?
And brass ones to boot?

I'm opening a business out in Langley and bought used mailboxes off craigslist and they just needed some cleaning.
