I used a combination of carbide scraper and ¾" wood chisel as detailed here:

If I was to do it again, I'd just go with the carbide scraper. As to whether to dress the points of the scraper, it's a good idea. I didn't do it but should have. On the other hand, I did not gouge the hull, possibly because a) I was careful and b) the hull's curvature was enough that the full width of the blade was never in contact.
I would have like to soda b;last the hull, but the cost was too much to consider seriously. My brother-in-law and I got a good upper body workout.
