Might be able to peel it off if you warm it up a little with a hairdryer or something!

You can buy silicone sealant remover from DIY places. You just spread it over the silicone and it breaks it down somehow.

Best read the label to make sure it's okay on paint though. I assume it's okay for enamel and plastic baths as this is primarily what it's designed for.

Cheers,
