 there was this canister i picked up at toyota that was a bug/tar remover. it said that it can be used for sap also. it worked wonders with my bug situation and it didn-t even harm my paint. it was only three dollars at the parts store at my local dealer and it has a picture of a celica on it.

 Thnx for all the replies guys. At first it was only on my headlights and windshield, now its ALL OVER the car, I mean EVERYWHERE! I was thinking about pouring boiling water on it or something, but hope I can find that stuff at the local dealer parts shop. But one thing I-m really curious about... does mayo really work on tree sap??

 it works, any OIL based food will work..corn oil, olive oil, it will literally penetrate and remove the sap...

 Of course you can go to a store or online and find somethign that will REMOVE tree sap..... but i thought you were lookign for some home remedies that will save you money.... hell, i might as well have told you to take it to a proffesional detailing shop and paid $70 for them to remove it, lol....If you wanted easiar information, go to any auto-store or walmart....Pep Boys, Kragen, Checker, Autozone, and go pick up a bottle of whatever they sell there at says -removes tree sap-
