I'd have to see it to be sure but it sounds like you've got calcium deposits (wich won't come off with a razor or acetone). I don't know it that's what you've got but try putting some vinegar on it. Leave it on for 10 minutes and wipe off. Just a possibility.

thank you all but i think dr joe has it right. there is absolutely nothing on the glass yet it is apparent where the old silicone was. yesterday i said F it and just siliconed the tank after one last good scrape and wipe down with acetone and the new silicone has stuck extremely well.
the tank never leaked in the first place but the old silicone looked questionable so i redid it anyways. once again thanks to everyone who has answered my multiple questions on tank sealing.

heres a few, i wish i wouldve masked off the bottom to make it look more professional but i only masked the sides. gotta get everything in my 100g over to this 150 so that i can reseal that as well.
