Acetone won't work. MEK (Methyl Ethyl Ketone) might, provided you keep it warm and leave the parts submerged for a long, long time. It's really, really pongy stuff though. Worse than acetone, by many orders of magnitude.

If you use systematic names, you're substituting butanone for propanone and expecting a different result. To me, this seem unduly optimistic.

Well, I've tried MEK on carbon/epoxy parts and it does definitely soften the surface of the epoxy resin. Whether or not it would be enough to break the bond in this case is another matter.
