You can try using hot white vinegar first ,leaving on long enough to break the adhesive down.Then use a soft scrapper being careful not to scratch the tub.If there is still residue try goo-gone or a citrus oil spray and repeat until the residue is gone.
Stick-on treads are composed of three different layers. The top layer is the decorative layer that offers the colors and design of the tread. The middle layer is a cushion, often made from mylar. The bottom layer is the adhesive layer. This layer secures the appliqué to the floor of the tub...... Some stick-on treading can be peeled off of the surface. The hardest part is getting it started. Use a cuticle stick, or plastic sharp-edged scraper to get the edges lifted from the surface. Ensure that all three layers are coming up..... Once the edge is lifted, gently pull back towards the center of the appliqué. If the layers begin to separate, start with a new edge. Keep working around the tread until the entire piece is removed..... To remove remaining residue, moisten it with goo gone or WD40..... For treading that cannot be peeled off, it will be necessary to loosen the adhesive so the appliqué can be removed..... To accomplish this, start by working the edges as much as possible so that they are lifted at least a little..... Once the adhesive area is at least a little exposed, soak a rag in vinegar and lay it on top of the sticker to moisten it. Scrape the sticker from the floor of the bathtub with a wooden or plastic scraper..... To remove remaining residue, moisten it with goo gone or WD40..... Don't use razor blades or metal scrapers.
I would use a heat gun or hair dryer on high. Heat up an edge then use a scraper to lit that edge. Be sure not to scratch the tub. Keep heating until the entire thing is peeled off. Try using alcohol to remove the remaining adhesive. You might want to place a soaked paper towel over the glue to soften it up. If the alcohol doesn't work, try using cooking oil by spreading it over the area and using your scraper to remove the glue. Sometimes the use of peanut oil in a jar of peanut butter works best.
Good luck!
