I do have an oscillating multi-tool that has a scrapper blade, but I have not tried it on jobs like this. It could work well, but cold and brittle may be the key as well. Otherwise, on a HOT summer day and a hand scraper!
I use a flap wheel on my dull, worn out oscillating multi-tool blades to make a chisel tip just for this purpose. Saves some time and money. Removing at room temp seems to work best.
