It’s very rare that tree sap comes off that easily! I’ve been in the auto business for 40 years and I’ve never seen tree sap come off that easily.
It's amphid poo
As a Pro Detailer across the pond...ive never seen IPA mot remove sap in a mater of seconds
I had this sap all over my windscreen. It rained and it had gone, I thought I was going mad but clearly it works!
I get this a lot living next to a park I use citrus pre wash in a pressure sprayer and quickly go over the whole car and then hose it off , works for me anyway fantastic video as always John
I am certain it really depends what kind of tree the sap came from. Some tree sap is waxy like the Carnuba Palm, or some fruit trees... but there is Fir and Pine which is extremely sticky or hard. Pine Tar and tree Pitch or Resin. These dissolve easily in turpentine, but I do not know the effect it would have on car paint.
Cheers, never knew that would work. I've always tried tar & glue remover followed by a wash.
Oh man, I wish you posted this last week... Car was covered in tiny spots. I pulled out my foldable cart, along with half a dozen different chemicals including citrus degreaser, spray 9 degreaser, 3D's APC 5:1, IPA (diluted to ~50%)... The IPA appeared to do the best job. So I sprayed the whole damn car down with my IPA solution, rinsed, and proceeded with a touch wash.
A guy that I used to work with in a detail shop always used laquer thinner to get rid of sap, it actually worked really well. It always quickly desolved the sap. This was of course after he had already washed the car with water. I worry now though that while removing the sap it also removed the clear coat... Any thoughts?
Great vid as always. Must admit I have to park under a tree from time to time and you get the dust mixing in with the sap and the surface feels like sandpaper. I have noticed in the past that a really good downpour of rain seems to shift most of it especially if you've got decent protection underneath. Not that we've had much of that lately!
Michael OWEN I pray for rain in the summer sometimes as it saves me a wash as well!
Great video once again
I think I will have to start selling water in bottles and call it Sap Zapper. I'll be rich 🤔😂
I use car pro tar x on a regular basis for tree sap. Not sure on the types of tree saps here in Montreal Canada but that's what works. Definitely recommend trying out tarx if water doesn't work 👍
I just faced the same problem yesterday. I washed the car in the end of the day and did a normal wash with ph neutral shampoo. I did a pre wash with snow foam so i don't scrubb the sticky dirt and that removed all. Followed with normal hand wash.
Really surprised that t&g removers didn’t work and it came off easily with water, I’ve seen Chemical guys use butter wet wax to remove sap but I’ve not tried it.
Methyl hydrate is what I use and will remove any kind of sap. It's also cheap and readily available in most hardware stores. Just make sure there's good ventilation!
I was curious about this video. I've never had an issue with tree sap remaining after a typical wash. I suspect it's not as dangerous to paint as hard water deposits which can cause horrid etching.
Jon, not sure you've done a video on tar removal but I've used some yesterday and stained some black plastic trim with it. Any advice on how to get rid?
Have you tried Citrol 266. It liquefies tar on contact not sure about sap, also not sure what it does to the wax or even clear coat, but I’ve heard a lot of talk about it. Would be good to see you review the product in the future.
Never seen so much sap on a car! I’ve never had to remove loads of sap as keep away from trees but if I did, I would go with Auto-Foam first. It’s by far the best cleaning foam. If my car was as bad as the Golf, my have used Greenstar first I suppose to be sure. Glad you got it all off!
Great video 👍
Wow that was an amazing found, thanks for saving me money on those tree sap removal products.
note the crap on the car in this video is whats called honeydew or aphid crap. sticky brown residue and the aphids are on the trees. This crap is water soluable. If you get like the treekle like stuff that comes out of the branches, it probably wont be water soluable. But in short if you think you have zap on the car, just wash it first. 95% of the time that will sort it if its honeydew. if not then a mineral spirit type remover product is the way to go.
Forensic Detailing Channel Thanks a lot for you reply John, you’re very helpful as usual.
Great video
Very interesting Jon wouldn't have thought water was the answer
I just tested out alcohol and it was effective. I'm a little concerned it may have been hard on the paint because I see streaks now, but the sap is easily 100% gone with little scrubbing effort. I let it sit for about 5 minutes to break down the sap.
I was really surprised that just water did the trick. I had a dealer literally scrub the sap off my new car with an abrasive and damage the paint trying to remove tree sap. 3 trips back to the shop to correct the corrective work. Great video thank you.
depends on the kind of sap. extremely misleading video. I'm a detailer. you think we don't try water first !??? lol
@Jon Bravo Sometimes I think these videos and comments are a joke.
You think maybe that would be the first thing you would do before going to a dealer or researching how to remove it?
Using water to remove contaminates is step 1.
If you never thought about using water then how do you wash your car?
Hi! My car sit underneath a pear tree and I went on holiday. When I came back, it was covered in rotten pears. It washed off everywhere but the bonnet that has a dull look to the paint. It doesn't wash off with water. What would be your recommendation here ?
Alcohol takes off tree sap easily with slight rubbing. I've never seen water take off tree sap, lol.
Maple tree sap washes off with water, Pine tree sap ONLY comes off with Isopropyl Rubbing Alcohol, dilute to 12% so you don't damage the paint.
Yes, apparently British sap is weenie sap. Here in the US Pacific Northwest, sap from a Douglas-fir tree only comes off with isopropyl alcohol.
Me either
Middle Georgia sap only comes off with vinegar and a LOT of elbow grease... isopropyl doesn’t touch it. :(
Warm water works even better John
I have this bloody problem every summer as I have a tree hanging right over my driveway and I found through plenty different methods that a pre rinse, snow foam, rinse and then 2bm gets rid of it a treat. Only problem is, when I wake up the next morning, I’m back to square one 😠😠 I’m wondering if a ceramic coat would be any good to minimise it or would I be wasting my time?
Since you probably already have it on the shelf, Bilt hamber surfex hd will make short work of that sap and any other organic contaminants if you use the pressure washer to rinse :)
I just tried this after using multiple chemicals and this worked best! Who new!!!
Happy to report that this video will likely save my arms and my wallet. I have a "mist of hard spots" all over our car, and nothing would make it budge. Didn't want to wash it originally, as it was washed less than 24 hours ago. Just did a test spot on the glass with a damp towel and voila! Gone!
Goo gone and tar remover didn't touch it. Car pro eraser was working, but still needed elbow grease.
5 years later, thank you!
great news was honeydew mate or literally aphid poo.
I've tried washing my car and it has no effect on pine sap
Hand sanitizer or isopropyl alcohol
Alcohol gets it off pretty well
Sap is unfortunately not water soluble so washing won't do anything
Interesting videos. I’m in south of France and unfortunately I can’t get ride of pine sap with water only. Someone recommended Schaeffer Manufacturing 266 Citrol Cleaner. I didn’t try yet but this product seems to be a good alternative to tar and bugs removers. I would also be interesting to compare it with your best of Tar remover which is the Tardis.
I've got hackberry tree sap, the only way water will remove it is if you scrub till your arm cramps. It's like mother nature's super glue. Perhaps the chemicals you used loosened the sap before you sprayed the water.
I have a tree sap problem due to a similar situation, leaving my car parked for a week whilst on holiday.
Having tried most of the products featured in this video, to no effect, after watching this I hurried out to set up the hosepipe, sadly the water had no effect on the sap either, so it’s back to the drawing board.
I wonder if Dawn dishwashing liquid would get it off.
Alkaline detergent works on that sorts of problems, natural oils and bugs of course.... If it is petroleum-based problem such as asphalt or oil, use a petroleum-based detergent.
I have never seen water being able to dissolve tree sap. What kind of trees do you have over there? I usually use a mix or alcohol based hand sanitizer and IPA. The sanitizer is like a gel so it allows the solvent to stay on the sap. Takes about a minute to dissolve it then I come in with a microfiber towel with a little more of the solution on it and wipe it away.
Me either. 100% doesn't work on thick wet pine sap. Your recipe here is exactly what I used this week, about 5 to 1 ratio. So glad I found it! Worst sap I'd ever seen. 4 years of parking daily just feet beside the trunks of a row of pine trees. Top surfaces were layers of sap, mold and mildew, wood bits, pine needles and more sap. After repeated foamings and high pressure washes, used microfiber and mesh bug sponge to begin cleaning organic material from droplets one by one.. then a stiff, smooth edged card to lift final bits of material that were embedded in droplets and thankfully this makes for less sap to dissolve. Took me about 20 hours to fully detail, interior, just get exterior decontaminated to where I can machine polish. But this said the vehicle is in such good condition it was worth the trouble. This added a ton if resale value. Wish I could post a picture here. Keep sharing that sap recipe. FWIW Malco makes a sprayable product name SAP with methanol, isopropanol, alkyl benzoate that looks great but it can only be purchased at suppliers so far as I know, by the $45 gallon. Cheers
@@mlstrib Glad it worked for you. I have upgraded to something that works even better now... alcohol gel for fondue burners. It's super cheap and it's more effective than the mix I used before. Might want to grab a bottle if you ever face hard to remove sap again.
@@Calendyr sure will get it👍
Hi John, thnx for the vid. What about the 1% that doesn't that doesn't come off with H2O ? What would be your top3 products to remove three saps and tar (that's safe on wheels too) or have you made a vid on those products ?
IPA and water mate.
Good informative video but I was a little surprised to see you had a metal tag on the end of your belt that was coming into contact with the car paintwork. We were always told to be mindful of what clothing we wore around cars.
Just come across this vid, so sorry this is late to the party. My Son's car had been parked under a tree for months until it was black in many parts with dirt stuck to layers of tree sap. Nothing I tried would easily shift it until a neighbour came around with a bucket and said try this. What a miracle! Just whipped it off. And this miracle substance-hot water with a dishwasher tablet dissolved in it. Wear washing up gloves though if you try it.
Has the car been coated? if so, how long ago and with what?
So i tried your method of removing sap off my car windscreen/paint work and just water alone didn’t work. Maybe it’s because I live in an area with hard water I don’t know. I Tried all sorts to get it off clay, paint cleaners, tar and glue remove, to no avail so I gave up and finished the car off. I applied Rainx rain repellent in the windows and it came off so I tried it on the paint work and it also came off so I found rainx rain repellent is good for removing tree sap.
My other half's car was covered in sap a few weeks back and after a wash it was still there. Tardis removed it perfectly so I don't understand why it didn't in your situation.
that's great for removing sap from deciduous trees like lime trees, but for pine tree sap it's not going to work at all. I'd love to hear your thoughts on how to deal with that one using something that both works on the sap and won't damage the clear coat. cheers
Pine sap is exactly what I'm dealing with right now, and like you said, water definitely won't do it. Dawn dish soap won't do it... neither will Dupli-Color wax and grease remover. Isopropyl alcohol does work well, but it evaporates quickly, so I'm going to try some hand sanitizer soap. It has alcohol in it, but won't evaporate so quickly. Apparently mineral spirits work well also.
Uk tree sap: ONR diluted 256:1 just worked for me in a pump sprayer. Maybe latest ONR formula wasn’t around when this video was made.
Water didn’t work on mine. Firstly, it had no protection on it which makes things worse - but anyway, 2xValetPro Snow Foam rinse between and after. The sap was totally untouched. Tried GTechniq tar & glue, super resin polish, autoglym engine cleaner, clay - not even close as it has been baked on for a while. Started with a soft Vikan brush but ended up using the Vikan nail brush which got it off but marred the paintwork (doesn’t matter, old less-than-perfect red E46 that was due a machine polish anyway - the sap tendered parts of it black). I then went on to decontaminate - now, I have another car next to it in a similar state (also unprotected but has been machine polished). My first decontam is tar & glue followed by Korrosol. Korrosol was the one I hadn’t tried for sap removal, so on the second car I did and it softened the sap really well allowing it to be powerwashed off. Good news as I didn’t really want to redo the machine polishing on the second car. I have another but that has 3xAutoglym HD and the sap isn’t as bad. Hopefully water will work on that but if not - I guess korrosol and rewax.
I couldn't believe this until I tried it. Water worked where specialist tar/sap remover didn't. It was chestnut tree sap on a Honda CRV 2020 with paint protection FYI.
I think it's aphid poo
I use a bilt hamber surfex spritzed over a wet pressure washed panel it melts even big clumps of tree sap
What do you recommend for tree sap that has really hardened, a thick glob of it, which has been missed for month or so? We have mature pines everywhere and I have a few bits on my car which I haven't been able get off fast enough, some of which have been on a year now and appear as hard as the paint itself!
IPA and water mate.
Excellent video Jon. I always wondered why there was so much commotion around tree sap and how to remove it as like you, a pressure wash rinse, prewash and another rinse would be all that is required when I deal with it.
yo brian hows it going mate. I think the problem is 99% of tree sap isnt actually tree sap. its actually honeydew or aphid excrement whatever that is :) but checking its water soluable seems a good starting point.
Not true . I’ve washed many a car before trying chemicals to remove the sap. Yours trees where you live must produce weak sap .
@@braddavis9154 or maybe your pre-wash isn't very good?
Wouldve thought something natural like pure lemon juice might shift it too?
Thanks again for great video. I was surprised that normal water works.
Unfortunately we have little bit more difficult problem in Finland.
do you have any idea? It seems to be Aphididae waste which is falling for cars.
After normal wash i can feel that paintwork is not smooth. All horizontal surfaces are coated with something sticky.
Tar & glue removers would not work, any petrol solvants do nothing. Clay mitt or clay bar is the 2 working solutions i know. Unfortunately both are not so coating safe products to use..
We have 2 cars which we have to leave sometimes under trees, and it is so stupid to do mad work with clay mitt many times / summer.
the the aphididae waste or honeydew which should normally be water soluable. I would try to avoid removing this stuff by abrasion if you can... So if its not water soluable you might want to see if a solvent based paintwork cleaner effects it. Even something like limonene can be worth trying.. or a specific SAP remover detailing product. The trick is to try and find what disolves it.. proper tree sap generally wont break down from water but 99% of times its honeydew like in this video.
Use Dawn Dish soap and a little hot water, soak tissue paper with that dish soap mixture, slap the tissue on your car body, let soak over night or even a couple of days. Can repeat with fresh dish soap soaked tissue paper for second application for another day or two. It loosens and softens the tree sap. Same principles as soaking pots in the kitchen. It worked for my BMW which had tough tree sap stuck on the paint for 2 years.
methalhydrate works amazing and its cheap as dirt its what truckers use to dry there air lines and it melts sap....a 4L jug should only be 10 bucks or so last your lifetime
are you going to do best review for tar and insect removers on the market you video are great thanks mark21
A fabric steamer and microfiber towel works great. We have pine trees that are always dropping sap. It makes a mess. You will NEVER get pine sap off with just water. Steam heats the water and melts the sugars , making the sap soft and easy to remove. I don't know what trees you have but thats not pine tree sap.
For the stuff that is not water soluble I use eucalyptus oil. Strong stuff though so go easy and rinse well with soap.
Water and soap did not work. I used germ x hand santizer on my windshield and it worked well but I haven't tried it on the paint yet.
You can try multipurpose cleaners I.e G101
Makes sense. The sap is ment to keep water inside the leaf so when it rains it should dissolve as it no longer needed.
What a wonderful product this is H2O is, Jon. Where can I get it? Do you have a discount code for it? :)
Should I be worried with how long i leave it on my car?
G 101 works very well however it can stain the chrome trim
My car has been sealed and waxed and when ever it gets covered in tree sap I just blast it with water and like magic the panels are super smooth again 👍
Hi Jon, in Australia we use eucalyptus oil.
Where to buy the “H20” lol
if H2O works, wouldn't all that sap just come off in the rain? I have never seen water remove tree sap.
Not sure I've ever seen that work on tree sap here in Aus. Have had a bloody rough time removing it in the past
I guess it all depends on the tree, as the sap I have on my jeep does not come off with just water, I even tried high pressure water at the car wash and nothing so I'll be using just alcohol.
Here in the pine sap region of California I'm in. H20 is Really not cheap I have got layers of of sap 2 years worth I'm kinda freaking out because I just realized I actually don't know how to wash my truck ughhhh
Hey John do you have any recommendations for tar removal, I think Bilt Hamber is missing this in there range. I can’t find any amongst your videos.
Surfex HD diluted 1:1... Or neat if the tar is really bad but I've never had an issue with a 50% mix 👍🏼👍🏼
Sparko 888 how strange I just added surfex HD to my basket on the BiltHamber web site 😂 thanks very much for the dilution ratio that will be a great help. 👍
Another great video Jon, please keep them coming. One I’d like to see is how to remove dried on wax from plastic trim. I don’t mean couple of days dried on, I mean weeks / months so it’s welded on.
As seen on tv plastic restorer wipes . Follow directions exactly. Ive tried hundreds of dollars of products , peanut butter, pledge , olive oil , wd 40 , Mothers respectively meguiars pro etc....
This is a constant issue for me. I have no option but to park under trees. Will a sealant help with the regular removing of sap?
Little bit but not much mate
I use Tardis everyday almost perfect for removing of sticker glue and bubble gum off glass and even black carpet. G101 I don't think would work but I have never tried it. Fallout remover should work. I think I would have tried hot soapy water first to be honest. Another great video there jon 👍
Thanks for that tip LNS. I had chewing gum stuck on my carpet which some lazy person must of threw on the floor and it got stuck on my shoe and onto the carpet. I tried removing it by hand but had little reminents of it which was deep in the carpet. Also don't listen to the top comment ^^^
Zain K yeah Tardis work great for chewing gum in carpet. I just spray a bit directly on to the gum and rub in small circular motion and it just disappears and that's on any colour carpet too. Glad I could help 👍
Yeah that top comment I just ignored it 🙄
The Mothers Synthetic Claybar works with soap and water.
I have found that rubbing alcohol or hand sanitizer removes pine pitch.
I have tried to get rid of pine sap it does not work?
I would love to know i had a job the other day pre wash wash water then snow foam then t&g still no joy this had been building up over some years all over a ML Merc ended up clay bar this is all i could find to move it this took some 2 hours plus the customer was more than happy but i have a clk to do in a few weeks time this is just like 100's of dots of vanish i cant see any easy way of removing this it made your car look like a walk in the park
@@jimomega381 Jim i will try this but the tree sap have been baked on it like vanish will this still work ?
What do you use when the sap has left dull patches on the paintwork? We live in London and have to use a good car shampoo to remove the dust-engrained sap but would dearly like to restore the paintwork. The car is almost brand new.
sounds like a clay and polish is the way forward mate.

Wow I would of never guessed that water would cut sap like that.
This morning I looked at my car after I got off work I notice that I had a whole bunch of brown sticky stuff on my car the first thing I thought is that somebody poured soda all over it then I realized that I parked under a tree I'm hoping that whatever that's on my car that I washed off with sap and not soda
Would Korrosol work? It almost always reacts with every little rubbish when i spray it on
the stuff on my car was water soluable and most fallout removers contain some water... but they would not be appropriate richard. you want to use the fallout removers on small bits of fallout stuck to clearcoat or alloy wheels or glass etc... I think always start with just washing the car like I did in the video.. and if that doesnt sort it out then its not like honeydew and its going to need a chemical perhaps something mineral spirit based if it really is proper tree sap.
Sap sandwich lol. I'm dealing with a sap sandwich myself, that's why I'm watching this now.
Did you perhaps try to use gyeon tar? Just asking because I don't know if it works.
no mate
Durex Super Lube is a must for removing tree sap and bugs
🤣🤣
I found my boyfriend used tub of XY Jelly worked a treat
I deal with pine pitch in my car every year. Nothing is a miracle cure for removing it. Rubbing alcohol works to dry it a bit but it still requires a lot of elbow grease & determination 😊
I have tiny little yellow spots all over nothings shifted them yet.
Great video Jon, but alas this didn't work for me. I tried Bilt Hamber Surfex / Touchless, Autoglym Professional Tar Remover and just very warm water but still no joy. The glass type beads were there to stay, so I started trawling through You Tube videos and found one by a guy called Chris Fix, who had an array of products lined up, including peanut butter and tried each one in turn. The one that really started to work was hand sanitiser and this was followed by rubbing alcohol, which did an amazing job. So I went to a local supermarket and bought a large bottle of sanitiser for just over £4 and within 30 minutes my roof and the bonnet were completely clear. I had done a test on an inconspicuous spot first. It would seem that alcohol is the key ingredient for sap removal, particularly pine etc. Cheap as chips and I still have about 95% of the bottle left.
Great video fella! I’m surprised that even worked, the tree sap we get from the pine trees are like huge boobs of sticky glue, rinsing, prewashinf and washing simply doesn’t touch them!!! I’ve always washed the car (usual process) then used CarPro tarX, spray leave to dwell for a moment then gently agitate it with a mf cloth, shortly after the blobs have gone and I reward those sections...
how to remove tree sap specks on hood that have been there for as short as few months but as long as a year? I didn't know it could be tree sap until recently.. but I've noticed there are dark tiny specks on my hood that don't come off with a wash. they don't seem to be bumpy either
Tar and glue remover. Autosmart TARDIS
@@ForensicDetailing actually, im not so sure if its as simple as sap spots. Now im afraid it’s a sign of clear coat failure or defect? Do you mind me sending you pictures through email? Thank you
Oh. I thought someone poured coca cola on my car but apparently its tree sap :o
I don't know about this cuz I use water for my car full of sap i even got products specially made for removing sap still didn't work and I saw a video from a guy named Chris fix and found out alcohol works great.
If you think that's bad you should see my car. Water definitely doesn't work on the sap from the trees on my block. Even purpose made sap removers didn't work. Although one day I sprayed some carpet cleaner on a spot and it wiped off with a paper towel. Then I read the bottle and it said don't use on paint so not really sure what to do now.
That’s a nice looking golf
Im not too keen on it anthony.. but its good to have a car that gets hammered and you dont have to worry about.. Its been really solid and easy to drive and generally and thats whats really meant Ive kept hold of it for so long. but every time I see a Mark7 I want rid of this one. but the flip side is Id then want to keep it too nice and clean which is an impossible job when you have kids and a misses that reverses into things :)
Forensic Detailing Channel we had the same model but the gtd dsg version had to sell it to buy my self a new car for my job 🚕 Vauxhall insignia-mini cab I got with it yesterday with auto finesse in & out and topped off with that fish past wax in the white tin
Took my aunts car to get washed in London and had to park it on the street under trees that evening. Next morning it looks like someone has poured a honey and lemonade cocktail all over it.
I just wait for a rainy day and let it soak that way. I wash it in the rain once it soaks then scrub it with a soapy wash mitt.
Before you started spraying I said get the hose on it😁
Surprised how bad tree sap is. Was surprised when you just got water and that took it off. Happy that I don't park under trees when they are doing their funky thing 😂
