tree sap got on my car the other day because of a bad thunderstorm blew it on somehow....well its on my door and hood and windshield. i washed the car today, used a high-pressure washer that i have and it got a lil bit of the sap loose/off but not completly. washed the car good and tried to rub the sap off but it just wont come off!! wut do u guys recomend to use or do to get this s*** off? its really pissing me off and i dont want it to f*** up my paint. think clay bar will work or is safe to use on that?

thanks

PS: I HATE TREE SAP!!![:@][:'(]

 

goo gone! worked like a charm on mine

 

I have found out that RainX actually works really well. I will tell you the truth, I am not sure what it does to the paint though.

 

A clay bar is exactly what you need. Just use plenty of lubricant. Believe me I've removed tree sap and paint overspray from my car and others' countless times. Best of luck to you!

 

woo thanks guys. ill clay it tomorrow maybe.

 

the longer u wait the more potential damage it will do

 

tried the clay today and didnt do anything....im gena try the goo gone stuff tomorrow prolly..this f***in sap is pissin me off.

 

ya just us the gloo gone stuff... stuff works for just about everything
i just used it today to remove the crapy double sided tape from the wheel place balancing my wheels. i hate that.... ya pay a preaty penny for some rubber and balancing and when trying to balance the rims they just leave the left over crap on the wheels when the weight isnt right



another thing you can use which will cost alittle more but work faster/ BUT youll need to wax it afterwards...
its a surface cleaner that you can get at most places that sell paint...... its ment to clean surfaces before paint cause it removes all crap off the surface, wax, glue, dust...bla bla bla.... works great! just stronger than the goo gone stuff. but its still a good idea to wash the car and wax it after.

 

Sorry it didn't work out for you. I've never had a problem getting it off with clay. It works especially well removing it from glass. Most of the sap I've removed has been misted on the car in like small droplets. But, I hope the goo gone stuff works for you. If that doesn't you might try denautured alcohol or mineral spirits. I've read that works on tree sap fairly well. Good luck.

 

another one ive used that worked well from walmart is tarminator.. i tried several different ones from different stores and that one worked the best.. but have also heard good stuff about goo gone..
