I would try a piece of laminate which can be broken to leave a sharp edge, it should not scratch the surface.

Lubricate with Mr Muscle kitchen cleaner, keep scraping & squirting, changing the laminate when the sharp edge wears off.

I used a window scraper, the kind with a Stanley knife blade sideways on as it were. Use a new blade, go steady and you won't damage anything. I also use the same implement for scraping the remains of gaskets off car parts, just in case that tip ever comes in handy.
