we need to add new caulk to our shower floor, but the old caulk must

What is the best way to do this?

I am in the same boat as you are. I have silicon caulk along the
bathtub and would like to remove it. I haven't started this task yet,
but some things that I saw that would help are a caulk removal tool
and 3M makes some caulk remover.

The caulk removal tool looks kind of like a small plastic scraper, but
the scraping part is in the shape of a 'v'. The caulk remover from 3M
can be bought at Menards. Here's a link for it...

I haven't done anything yet, but it would be interesting to hear other
people's thoughts.
