Got a tank that needs scraped? Repainted? Or even just coralline covered!!?
Here is a way to speed up the scraping process!
First you can use chemicals to loosen it up if you want like alcohol.
Here is the important part.
When getting ready to get down and dirty with the razor blade first make a grid.

It doesn't have to look perfect not be square. The point is to make the scrapes come off in sections more easily.

In just a few minutes. Much faster than just scraping it as a whole.
 
Well I didn't finish the scraping and it snowed.

Additional tip: glass pains covered in snow don't require more than your hands to remove the paint!!!
