Use a small amount of Goo Gone to remove the sap, then QUICKLY wash that area of the paint with auto soap/wash. My sister had sap all over her Jetta. That's what she did, and it worked without hurting the paint. Another alternative is that Meguairs and the other car care companies make products specifically for what you are trying to do.

Why not just put up one of those instant garages with the aluminum frame and fabric covering to keep the sap away from your car? There are many different kinds available. See link below for an example:

You should try going to an auto store like Auto Zone or A flag Auto, they should have something safe to use. Or go to a WAL-MART and get this stuff called ''GOO-GONE" It's pretty safe on most every thing and it works But read the back label to be sure it won't hurt your paint, I don't think it will, it's safe on clothes and so many other things it's probably safe on that to.

Goo Gone is the best thing that I have found for removing all sorts of things from paint jobs and not damage it.

My father had a Ford extended van with the same problem, covering the entire roof. Simple Green cleaned it right up, and is non-toxic.

use a good rubbing compound then wash and put a good wax on your paint that will make it alittle easier to get off next time plus save your clearcoat
