Use a wet rag to immediately remove any remaining lacquer. Afterwards test the stripped area by scraping it with a screwdriver or nail. If it is not soft or does not scratch easily you should be good."

They use lacquer thinner to remove graffiti from playground slides which could be, or at least is similar to, polyethylene.
