Had to park the Thunder under a pine tree for a while. Now I have sap drops all over the deck. I've tried dish soap, acetone, WD-40, and some fancy gel-cleaner from West Marine, Nothing seems to touch the sap. My other thoughts are diesel fuel, charcoal lighter fluid, or a friend suggest "Goof-Off". Any other ideas?

Bug and tar remover by turtle wax. Works great on pine sap

Goo Gone and also agree with vbot

I've used acetone before with no issues.

Gasoline on a clean rag is economical and works great. It (along with all the others) will remove wax so be sure to wax her back up after clean-up!

Clorox Cleanup. Spray on cool dry surface and watch it melt in 10 minutes. Scrub, rinse and hit again if needed. Works great.

Hottest water you can get through your garden hose is what a automotive paint guy told me.

My boats always lived in a shop and never lived out of cover... until I moved to Florida. It seems owning your own shop/barn down here is only for the rich & famous?
Anyway, I bought a nice full cover some time ago, but STILL trying to get the sap off. I realize I ain't reel smartt these dayz, so I figured I would go to those who knew.
Thanks for the ideas!

Ayuh,.... Use Butter,..... The kind ya slather onto yer toast in the mornin',.....

Butter will dissolve pine pitch, spruce pitch 'n fir pitch,....

Then clean with soap, 'n water to get rid of the greasiness of the Butter,....
