How do I safely remove pine sap?
My wife's parking spot at work is near a pine tree cluster and w/the windy days we've been having, the A6 is now covered. What's a safe way to remove them from the body, glass and trim? It seems to have dripped and spread across the different surfaces.
And please no comments about the parking situation. It's a sore subject around my house. She's about 2 steps away from losing the A6 back to me and then getting herself a minivan.

Re: Tarminator, or
Stoner makes (or perhaps made) a spray called Xenit which was more like Goo Gone. I used it recently on some graffiti on traffic signs and it works just fine for that.

I tried a 3M brand adhesive/glue remover. It worked, but left white-ish rings in some spots.
I was hoping to avoid having to do an additional step, like now having to remove those rings.

No worries. If you've also got Goo Gone, give it a go (anything Troy says is worth a try). G'luck.
Report back on which works better if you try both. I LOVE not having to go and buy yet ANOTHER detailing product.
