If its on the tank (cant tell..) razor works good just be sure to not let the water level drop, if its on the hood where the light shines through, razor under running water. works for a bit but have to do every week or every other week. thats what i do, to bad its not the end all solution

Turtle wax polishing compound will help remove it as well, it's used for buffing out clear coat on cars. When I got my last used tank I soaked it in vinegar overnight and polished it with my car buffer and it looked 100x better. When I get home I'll try to find some before and after pics.
 
i tried the vinger and did not have any luck it is on the inside of tank what better to use then CLR or Turtle Wax and as far as turtle wax goes which one ae u referring to the original formula

+1 I did this on my 210. Different product same process. Abraisive paste and a car buffer. Made my tank crystal clear. It is a little time consuming though.
