Waldren Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 I have purchased a home with 2 Norfolk Pine trees in the front lawn. The driveway is right under one of them and the sap drips on my car . Any way of removing the drops? Lee Waldren Fort Myers, Florida Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Kingoftheroad Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 "Bug & Tar Remover" made by Turtle Wax, should work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KenHupp20 Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 You also might try WD40. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
29pickhupp Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 I worked on a cottage that had some pine trees that dripped all over my truck I found turpentine worked best for me. I used a soft cloth,lots of turpentine in the shade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest AlK Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 I know this will sound weird but try crisco. It removed road tar from a car of mine that I had driven thru road work that they were covering. It took awhile but it worked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAVE A Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 I also recommend the Turtle Wax product. No matter what you try, make sure that your car is clean when you start rubbing. If you don't you will create swirls wherever you rub!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest billybird Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 In addition to the good advise you have already recieved: When you do get it clean, follow it up with some good quality polish and wax. This will make the sap easier to clean off next time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harold Posted July 3, 2011 Share Posted July 3, 2011 I've heard that pine oil works well on pine sap....it's its own solvent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
