Painting Question

I'm painting a kitchen and the previous painter left
a think yellow line of paint around the cabinets. I
tried a paint scraper (no use) and a razor scraper (took
off a little of the dark brown finish of the cabinet).
What's the solution? I'm thinking of buying some thick
brown stain and touching up the cabinets as best as I
can.

Thanks,

S.

I've had success with a product called Goof-Off (don't recall exactly
what's in it) when trying to remove paint from a finished surface. As
the label sez, test on an inconspicuous spot for compatibility with the
underlying finish. It will require some patience, and elbow grease.
