I thought about a razor blade, but am worried about scratching the tub. This is my first experience with something like this... any help would be appriciated. __________________ I DON'T OWN MY HOUSE... MY HOUSE OWNS ME!

Ron It is a fiberglass tub, the caulking is some type of latex (although I am not sure exactly waht type) and it is the remainder from removing the surround. __________________ I DON'T OWN MY HOUSE...
