Have you tried the scrapers or use old style shaving razors

I totally agree with Jim that scrapers are the way to go. Not just for decks, but for the hull as well. The thought of a slice in my fingers from the double edged scares me, it really does, so I went to stiff back blades rather than double edged, but builder's choice as always. I do bend some to create a bit of a curve as needed.

A very good way is also to use fibreglass erasier - they are working somehow like scrapers, but you come into every small edge

tip of your utility knife. instead of using the sharp side of the blade tip, use the blade backwards so it scores instead of cuts.

The trouble with these is the tiny fibre glass particles that wear off can penetrate your fingers, unless you wear disposable gloves. Both uncomfortable! It's more like fibre glass dust.
