MAJOR problem on clk320

Man, this is so embarrassing, but here goes. I have a 2004 clk 320 coupe, and while I was driving to school this morning, I accidentally ran over a bottle of STUCCO (white, creamy, sticky stuff used for houses I think) and it just completely splatted all over the left side of my car. Now my car has stucco on the left side wheels and on front and back bumpers.

My question is IT IS REMOVABLE? I tried removing it some of it that got on the side and it came off. But there is so much stucco on the bumpers its impossible to not leave a mark when taking it off. Plus, it's pretty hard to take it off since its sticky and in a big mass.

Any suggestions on removing it? I'm thinking about going to body shop and asking them. Thanks.

A body shop or detail shop would be the place to go. Sounds like its going to be somewhat labor intensive to fix, if they can get it to come off at all.

use mineral spirits, it doesnt remove paint but will clean the junk off. Also WD-40 works well for removing bugs, tar, etc.
