Tree Sap

Can someone advise me on the best stuff to use on the girlfriends car. She parked underneath a fir tree a work overnight and body is covered in it. I have got the worst off with some tar and bug remover but need something stronger

Re: Tree Sap

Thanks guys, this tree sap is fir tree sap and is a bitch to remove even with a good clean. I will get the super resin polish out and see if that helps. Don't think I am brave enough to try turps just yet.
Failing that, I think I will get some tardis As I would think that will do it.
