reaper8253 Posted October 11, 2009 Share Posted October 11, 2009 Hey guys, working on getting tree sap off the new dd. It's on there pretty heavy. Any ideas? I tried WD-40 as a few suggested but doesn't really cut it? what about heating it up with a heat gun? Any thoughts? thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 NightMare Silverado Posted October 11, 2009 Share Posted October 11, 2009 waterless wash and detail spray. you might need to clay if that doesn't work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Bill-V8V Posted October 11, 2009 Share Posted October 11, 2009 Goo Gone has worked for me, just wash real good after you use it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Adam Posted October 11, 2009 Share Posted October 11, 2009 If it's super hard, the hair dryer trick will likely melt the sap a little. Then, use some solvent, like thinner or goo-gone, to gently remove the sap. If it's still hard after using the heat, try a plastic putty knife, like the yellow ones they sell in line at Home Depot. Keep us posted, and take photos if possible! -Adam:2thumbs: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 11chevz71 Posted October 11, 2009 Share Posted October 11, 2009 IF it is really sticky it is a pain to get off. But most likely goo-gone is going to be your best bet. It will take awhile but it should come off. Just remeber to wax the area again once you are done because the goo gone will most likely strip your wax off.
