F**king Tree Sap

[RatedSXi]

In the summer time my car suffers from Tree Sap, due to Trees along side the main road by my house, just looking at what the best way is to get the S**T off, its very sticky, and just wondering if theres a product just for getting it off?

Always an answer.

bug and tar remover?

Would say thats the best option and would be deffo be the quickest.

Could cost you alot though lol. Im sure it should only be used to small spots.

youve just said the answer :D

when i saw the boot,i thought bug and tar remover, but you cant really do it to the whole car :lol:

[ghandez]

would a really hot bucket of water n shampoo not do it?

Would be good if it was in a spray bottle, as it would take ages.

Might invest in some of these, any good?

autogylm fast glass says it works on tree sap but then says you need to polish it afterwards I can personally vouch for fastglass

Clay bar is your answer.

[RatedSXi]

Clay bar is your answer.Can you just clay the car, before a wash?

[rad_brad]

Clay bar is your answer.

The man is right:)

Can you just clay the car, before a wash?

Wash before to get dirt off otherwise the clay will just pick the general dirt up.

my car is totally covered in the stuff aswell, aswell as about 6 mahoosive bird sh!ts on the roof, really really really need to get it washed, hopefully will be getting the titleist treatment on monday evening :lol: then when i get back from tenerife i will be ordering lots of new toys (snow foam lance, snow foam, maxi suds, new shampoo, claybar etc etc :)

My nan had a tree outside her house that completely bocked her view. The council refused to chop it back. So my dad and I drilled some holes in it inserted some nitrogen fertilizer and about 3 months later the council took it down because it was mostly fungus by that point.

Ouch looks like someones had a trouser accident all over your car :\

The only thing thats gonna solve this without cleaning it near enough constantly is gonna be a car cover, or for the extreme version chop the fecker down :thumbs:
