Originally, this method are tried by Karo-sama. He has made a video for demostration.

Thank you very much. Now I know what Acetone is; nail polish remover. I have also cleared the toner by scratching the board with a used and blunt razor.

if you like ultra-super-cheap methods, instead of using Acetone to remove the toner try getting some plain paper and ironing it back off! you can eventually melt it all off onto different spots on the paper, it just takes a bit of time. very handy if you don't have any acetone ;)
