you can scrape it off with a razor on the windshield if its stuck and you can use clay (check auto parts store) w/water to remove it from paint - dont let the sap stay on too long it can eat your paint

We have this problem every year in the summer. If it is just the fine mist of sap that the trees put out during the summer, a trip to the car wash usually gets rid of it. If you have more than that, most auto stores have a sap remover that you can buy.

Go to your local auto parts store or the automotive section of your local Wal-Mart and ask them for a can of Bug/Tar/Sap Remover. Read the directions before you buy -- most of them are safe to use on car paint, but some aren't.

It is called "Disolve-It" or Disolv-It. It will not harm the paint on the hood. It is very oily so it is non-abrasive. It will work great. It is not hard to find where I live, but if you have trouble, try Simple Green first and if that doesn't work look for the other. Good luck.

I would suggest using a vineger solution or some of that tar and bug remover. I know that is what I have done in the past. Make sure not to let it sit too long to advoid damage to you paint.

Use some WD-40 with a soft cloth. It will break it down very quickly. Then wash it off with soap & water.
