Help please. I need to remove some black silicone from around bath and tiled area. Does anyone have a trusted method, tools and product that works as recommendations?
 
The best tools I have used previously for removal:
  • Utility knife for scoring, and removing
  • A scraper with a bevelled edge
  • A sharp wood chisel
All 3 of those in conjunction have been the quickest and generally safest method.
