   I think that you're stuck with the flat razor -- or some other type of flat scraper.

   But, to help avoid gouges, you should round-off the corners of the blade. Use a sharpening stone, or a file. Without the sharp corners, you'll be much less likely to scratch or gouge the tub.

   Vast projects should not be founded on half vast ideas.

   3M sells a caulk remover that isn't perfect but seems to soften the caulk and weaken it's grip on the surface. It's worth a try.

   I am only familiar with the DAP Caulk Remover, and it is designed to only work on acrylic caulks.  Problem is, it cannot differentiate between an acrylic caulk and an acrylic tub.  Therefore, they specifically state not to use their caulk remover on acrylic surfaces.

   The 3M works best on silicone caulks. Don't recall if it said anything about acrylic tubs, though.
