If not too hardened, I have found that vinegar works fairly well. Soak 
it to soften, then gently scrape with a razor blade if it doesn't all 
dissolve.

Pool acid (3 molar hydrochloric) is hazardous but more efficient. Here 
we have a product called "CLR" that works pretty well, too. 
[CLR=Calcium,Lime,Rust] Burns skin and eyes, so great care is needed 
when using it.
