Melted plastic bag on exhaust…

So I was looking underneath my car and saw this black looking tar on my new Y pipe… I brought it to a shop to do my routine oil change and they said that a plastic bag got melted around my exhaust. Does anybody know how I can get rid of the residue? Looks ugly as hell! Even though you’ll barely ever going to see it lol

We’ll see in a few months if it’s still there!
