So i've been real sick lately, borderline pneumonia. Well I had to run into work yesterday to get some stuff to work on for the rest of the week. Only parking space left was under the trees. Came out and had sap on my truck and window. Took it to the car wash today cuz I can't really wash it and some of its still there. Whats the best way to get this off? Am I going to have to use a clay bar on the paint to get it off? Its on the window too and I have used a hell of a lot of different things to get it off and its still there. Suggestions?

I always use bug / tar remover spray to break down the sap. Gets it off pretty well.

X2 on the tar and sap remover--it comes in a white can. We have pine trees on the side of our driveway and they make a huge mess in the summer. Our trailer is completly covered in that crap.

Give the bug/tar remover a try. If no workey, then resort to the clay bar. Detailing clay is awesome stuff.

Well as soon as I get better, I'm going to get on it. I am feeling better but this damn cough and the no voice are hanging in pretty tight. Thanks for the ideas.

You can use margarine to get the pitch off then just use a little dish soap and water. Remember to rewax the area that you washed with dish soap. I have used this for years of splitting wood at my parents.
