Default tree sap problems

Just wondering if anyone had a good way to get tree sap off. Or if there is a product that can take it off.

I know hair conditioner will take sap off of you. Its a framers trick. Might work on the truck. If its hardened use a razor and wd40. Goof off isn't good on the paint.

Most any kind of bug spray like deep woods off works great. I know it sounds stupid, try it!

right now the 3m earser wheel. I guess it heats it up so it sticky again then use some type of glue remover. then most of it just wipes off. but have not found a good way yet. My best advice is get it while it is still fresh. if it drys up it is a pain in the a$$

Actually, if you leave it on there long enough you can just scratch it off with your fingernail.
