Concrete on paint

I just bought a 2007 F-150 that has a few specks of what appears to be concrete on the hood and one fender. Most of them are about 1/8" to 1/4" in size. Any suggestions on removal with out damaging the paint?
Thanks
R.E. Klaus

Muriatic acid, diluted. wet down the area first and don't let the acid solution touch anything that is not already wet! Pour it on, it will smoke a little when it touches the concrete, rinse immediately, try removing the spot. You will see it soften up the bond, may take a few times and be careful, the acid will burn your skin! This is what we used when I was driving concrete mixers and we did it every day, but like I said......keep everything wet and rinse often.

Thanks. I received the same advice from a friend who works for a major parts distributor. He ask his paint tech people.
