My best luck with soap scum on a shower door has been straight vinegar and a semi-abbrasive sponge (kind of like those sponges that are a yellow sponge on one side and a green scratchy thing on the other, but this one is white instead of green, and apparantly doesn't scratch surfaces as much.
...razor blades are a great tool for certain things, and thought I've never needed to resort to them for soap scum, I bet it works great.
Just BE CAREFUL! First thing - make sure the surface you are scraping is wet (again - try wetting it with vinegar). Second - make sure you use the blade at a low angle -- almost along the plane of the door. Third - make sure the blade is sharp. Dull blades don't clean - they scratch.

I take mine down to the car wash. No muss, no fuss, 75 cents to wash and 75 cents to rinse, does a great job.

I have never been able to get my shower doors spotless since right after we installed them. After a few years I finally gave up. I still regularily scrub them just to say they are *clean* but for appearances I hung a pretty (cloth) shower curtain up in front of the doors to hide them. I still have the convienince of shower doors without having to look at the ugly things.
We just got involved in some new great cleaners that are 100% chemical free. They work better than most store products and cost the same or less. Tub & Til and Sol-U-Mel is fantastic on soap scum. They also sell soap that has no lye in it so this avoids soap scum. The soaps I found a little more than I like to pay but have since found they last 2-3 times longer than the coat soap I was using. They call the soap the Gold Bar or Platinum bar and the smell is great. Got to
Use a magic eraser ( I use the cheap dollar store brand) and plain water. Wipe all surfaces of the glass then wipe with a cloth. Spray windex and shine with a paper towel.
