Softening caulk/putty

I didn't know where else to post this, so if it needs to be moved so be it.

Some years ago I installed two plastic splash guards at each end of the tub surround. These were held in place by a hard setting caulk/adhesive.

Well, the guards are removed and it's time to remove the old caulk. I was hoping for some chemical approach which would soften the caulk and yet not damage the tub material.

I've tried using a hair dryer to soften this stuff with heat but it takes a lonnnnng time to get anywhere.

Any ideas?
