How to Spot-Clean the Bug-Poop?

What is the best way to remove little orange spots? Sometime these persist even after washing the car. I am terrified of the possibility of damaging the mineral grey metallic surface. I'm tempted to use one of the disposable windshield wipes I keep on hand. Would that be foolish? A wet paper towel might be abrasive. What is best? Thanks!

We keep quick detailing spray and a soft microfiber towel in the cars for these situations. Great for bird poop, too. https://www.autogeek.net/quickdetail.html

I'd use detailing sprays.
