i have an old Outasight shower screen over the bath I want to remove as it's hopeless. I have unscrewed the screw and cut through the clear acrylic sealant. however it is simply not shifting. It's like its superglued on. I have now cracked one tile by trying to lever it off and am a complete loss on what to do next. Disaster!
shower screen removal - help!

No idea what your screen looks like ,or more importantly how its fixed to wall. Can you post some pics ?
Maybe hidden fixings you can't see ,or silicone.

Most likely still being held with the silicone. Try rocking it side to side and keep slicing away with the knife.

Either match them or think outside the box and make a feature there.
Normally you would have a thin sharp blade to run down the back of the wall bracket slowly cutting away the silicone but I guess it's too late for that.
Time for a tiler methinks, at least to get some ideas.

Some images would help.
