our apartment includes a supermarket...and it is above the parking lot... i'm on the first floor of the parking lot...above me is the runoff pipes of the supermarket...apparently, the one above my car is somewhat clogged or something...it overflows sometimes...and gets on my car...mostly passenger side rear door. it feels sticky and nasty when new...but once dried up...it sticks like crazy... i don't drive the cars often...so sometimes i don't notice until too late. luckily, the c36 was moved to a different stall b4 this happened... but it has dropped on 4 times on the volvo...the first being the worst...
here's a pic of it... i got rid of most of the stuff on the window...but there's stuff on the paint....

~One man’s opinion /observations~
As suggested try Isopropyl (available at most pharmacy’s) if that doesn’t work try paint cleaner like P21S.
Apply with a straight-line motion with a clean dry Microfiber cloth.
I know it’s difficult to know what the “crap” is as it depends where the origin of that pipe is, roof rain runoff, or more likely wastewater from your description of ‘stickiness’’.
~Hope this helps~
Experience unshared; is knowledge wasted…/
