Caulking removal

Not your standard caulking... it looks like the previous people didn't let the caulk dry before taking a shower!

I've tried every cleaner I can think of but it just won't budge.

The bottom of this shower is supposed to look like the center area of the floor. The white on the sides is what I need to remove.

Any ideas before I take the wire brush drill attachment to it?

cant really tell from the picture...is that grout? looks like a regular fiberglass shower pan...if that is caulking all over the place..i have never seen that in my life like that...if its caulking mineral spirits used in a well ventilated area may weaken it..but your going to have to use elbow grease...if that is a shower pan and can come out of there by looseing the gasket down in the drain...that may also help since all that caulking is going to have to be redone anyways
