There is a sweet gum tree in my yard, right next to where I park my car. It drips sap. You guys know of any products to remove this goo, and not damage the paint? (since I figured this out I'm now using a car cover at night).

Thanks

WD-40 and a rag or those blue shop towels on a roll.

you'd be amazed just how many things wd40 is good for

best of all it doesn't hurt paint at all

Water, which is what sap mostly consists of. Once I had a pine tree do the same thing to my car... rainstorm cleaned it off for me.

I hope none of that sap got down on your uncovered engine.

bug and tar remover works great too....and it isn't bad for your paint like WD-40. WD-40 is kind of like a stripper...just not as aggressive. If you use WD-40, make sure to wax the area afterwards...beacuse chances are...you stripped the surface.
