Add a small amount of Hand Sanitizer to the Tree sap, let it set for a couple seconds. Then wipe until it's dry, apply a second coat if needed. This also works on Windows.

Note this should work on most paints, but please test in a inconspicuous area first

Step 2

After removing Tree Sap, I would recommend waxing over the areas, because Hand Sanitizer will remove the wax layer.
