Homebrew PCBs

If you already tried acetone, i believe you are out of luck with solvents.

Try strong developer (NaOH) for some time, see if that gets it off.

The problem with mechanical removal (sanding) may well be that you
thin out the copper too much in some areas before all of the resist is
removed.
