BAsque1,
Letting the car sit overnight is not practical in this case as I drove it in the morning to work. I may just use the tonneau in the future, however, or come back out after it cools for an hour or so. There doesn't seem to be any heat resistant cover available for Cobras, which I find pretty strange given how readily available they are for motorcycles.

The good news is that the goo basically wipes right up with steel wool when the pipes are hot.
