Any hard plastic. Glass is ridiculously hard, you dont need to worry about scratching it. Hell you could probably use your skiis if you wanted

I use the plastic base plate the gopro comes on and seeing as everybody and their gran has a gopro you should he set. Or just use a plastic ruler and if its got blunt edges use a file to sharpen them up.

I use a putty knife as a scraper all the time. I've never damaged my bases with it. I say go for it.

Also very useful if you forget your scraper for your car. Using a credit card/old school ID works pretty well on windshields and windows.
