My son came home from school with his car covered with tree sap. It has dried on to a lacquer finish. I have tried lots of sap removers and car polishes but it still will not come off. I would appreciate some suggestion.

Try Avon skin so soft bath oil. It removed gummy residue from tape, it also removes tar and doesnt harm paint finishes (07/25/2006)

Try rubbing alcohol, WD-40, or Skin-So-Soft bath oil. Wash the car afterwards to remove any residue. (07/26/2006)

Have you tried Witchhazel? You can find it in the pharmacy around rubbing alcohol. I've heard to use this on skin, but I don't know how it will work on a car. (07/27/2006)

Heard about using peanut butter from a housewife, and can't wait for a mild day to try it Fortunately , the 'sap source' was cut down.
The rationale behind using peanut butter is not that 'it sticks too the roof of your car', but,that the oil doesn't evaporate as fast as most solvents. I'll opt for the 'all natural' spread , as it should
