THe first thing I'd try would be to sharpen a tooth pick and try to scrape it off. The soft wood should not scratch the canopy. You will have to sharpen often.
Even if you do get some fogging you can use steel wool and some really fine wet sandpaper (in the 1xxx) and buff it out then get some light polishing compound.
I Know this has been covered in other posts. Here's one link

Do some other search too and you will find a way.
