Have got to decorate my bathroom as not bothered to do it yet but am stuck with this problem?
The last tenents painted the bath with what looks like emolsion paint to seal it around the edges. (STUPID PEOPLE)
Can anyone give me some advise what to remove it with so as not to harm the bath.
Any advise would be appreciated Thankyou.

I have tried scraping but don't want to do it to hard never thought of steaming though.
I thought of trying some white spirit but not sure:crossfing
