Removing caulk

There are caulk removers....3M (Home Depot, Lowe's, etc.)
or
Heat gun or hair dryer, and plastic scraper.

Great, thanks, I will try a heat gun!

I found the vibrating multi-tools do a great job of removing calking with the sharp blade scraper. I was using it on concrete and not worried about scratching paint. Wonder if a plastic scraper could be modified to work as a blade in one of those things? Many times faster than manually doing it.

Go with the heat gun over hair dryer. :)

Just don't let it get too hot.

I used the multi-tool on the roof and it works great. But the roof isn't painted and if you're not careful with that multi-tool it will dig right in to the fiberglass. I don't think I'd use it on the painted surfaces on the sides.
