Hm. Good question.
Being a victim of pine sap myself, my first recommendation is to get the
stuff off your car as soon as you find it.
Carburetor cleaner might be too harsh and destroy your clear coat. Ask a
professional about that.
I recently tried to remove label stickum from clear polycarbonate. Goo
Gone did the job without harming the plastic at all.
Don't forget to Google the problem. |

Thanks!
Very helpful.
Goo gone...ng.
WD 40 some effect, required some rubbing, need more testing on that.
Ice trick did not seem to work, although it might be good for the big
thick raised blobs, I did not have any of those this time.
Denatured Alcohol....worked well. Although I did not have any of
those big flat blobs to try it on. On the kind that are flat and
white it did well. Although there may still be a mark left because
the Pine Sap will damage the clear coat.

Try some Kit 'Scratch-Out', available at auto stores, on the spots.

Most tree sap is water soluble... but for those that are not...
denatured alcohol should work fine. I have never seen a case where
alcohol has hurt a car's finish.
