How do I get rid of all the Caulk? Also, what Caulk Product/Color even is this?

I've been using Goo Gone Caulk Remover, Vanilla, and then heat from a hair dryer to try to get rid of caulk. the short sides of the tub easily had the caulk come off, but the longest stretch is a nightmare. I've tried plastic and then silicone tools. I have no clue what the prior person used, except that the job is a mess. Caulk is all over the tub and the sides of the bathroom wall. I've attached pictures. I'm leaning to just use whatever color this is in order to match it and also the rest of the house. It's definitely not Silicone, but I think what happened is the idiot just painted over the prior caulk work and it's a nightmare to remove. GE has this almond color and there's Grout Haystack Caulk. But I want to use Silicone. I strongly think that the person before me did NOT use Silicone Caulk and I have no clue what this person used. The rest of the caulk in the bathrooms match this color and were done right, but not this one. I found these colors at Home Depot; Which one could work the best?: https://www.homedepot.com/b/Flooring-Flooring-Supplies-Tile-Setting-Grout-Caulk/Sanded/N-5yc1vZcdtfZ1z0mjxs Here are pictures: https://imgur.com/a/caulking-project-cbuQ9gd submitted by /u/SnooWalruses4775 [link] [comments]
