I found a 5 gallon glass carboy that is difficult to clean with a brush. There is a scale or deposit inside. Is there something strong I might use to loosen it enough to use a brush? Otherwise, I may have to trash it.
White vinegar will usually take off deposits.

fyi....once clean use 1oz white vinegar in 1 gallon water to wash off the oxy residue...
works for me. also if you sterilize at brew time with sar-stan it will remove the residue as well.
oxi-clean is a great cleaner but you should still sterilize with something on brew day.
oxiclean free. Soak it and shake it every 12 hours or so.
one scoop of oxyclean free and poof! its clean too and some money will remain in your wallet. I use pbw for kegs but don't like spending the money on the glass fermentors. I do agree pbw works great! i just think oxyclean works great as well.
