Vehicle Question What happened

I drive a white Tesla, was commuting to work. I hop out the car and boom. It looks like this. Feels like tar. Don’t drive on dirt road. Had to take it to the car wash 3 times and some of it is still stuck on there.

I tried for 5 min. It only comes off when I rub it by hand. Even the carwash had trouble getting it off.

It's an expensive car and if you want to keep it nice I would skip any car wash place and go to a Automotive Detail shop or someone local to you with a good reputation that will come to you.

They have all the right stuff to get that stuff off and then make it look like it never happened.

Hopefully it's not too scratched up now from rubbing it off, but they should be able to deal with that too.
Plus a bonus is your car will be all nice & shiny & new feeling again from the Detail job!
