i need creative advice on my firewall

[djais1801]

so...my ignition module heated up and the "jelly" ran down the firewall and dried.
there are 2 drip lines down about 8 inches. How can I remove this w/out ruining the paint on the firewall?
any suggestions?

Heat gun to soften it?
Plastic squeegee to take it up?

Bug and Tar remover.

Mine did this it just peeled right off, maybe I got lucky! Plus I had some leftover rattle can sublime paint I did my engine bay with so if I had to repaint any damage I wasn't worried. I would try what others have recommended first!
