You can wrap them in towels, soak with paint remover.... let them marinate a bit and wipe off most of the paint. The ends with the diamond patterns or knurling or whatever that's called are a little tedious.... toothbrush and toothpicks for that end of them.

If he used average can of spray paint, try some Graffiti Remover spray. Got mine from Home Depot. Spray and soak in small container.
