Removal of paint from holster

Thank you all for most of the suggestions...I think I'll pass on the Afrikakorps idea! When and if I work up the courage to try something, I'll post the results.

One more question...Is the use of shoe polish on these holsters as much of a sin as Marvin Cook indicates in his "Holster Care and Preservation" article on this forum? The temptation to bring out my tin of Kiwi black polish is hard to resist. Surely, the German military polished their holsters!
