I read your original post. the tools you had on hand were inadequate.

the tool you want is a card scraper. a thin flat piece of steel about
the size and shape of an index card. Woodcraft has them for $9:

in order for it to work you'll have to learn to sharpen it. sharpening
of card scrapers is a bit different from sharpening most other things.
here's a pretty good write-up on the process:  <http://
