    Hey all,

    For those of you who park outside an near pine trees. What have you found best for removing pine pitch from paint/glass? We had a storm not long ago and left spots all over my truck. Tried goo gone and WD 40.. worked to some degree but some of it is stuck on good..Any recommendation would be appreciated..

    Mineral spirits/paint thinner (NOT lacquer thinner) would be my go-to. Mineral spirits will not harm a cured finish. Don't leave that pine sap or pitch on any longer than necessary. Pine trees make a sap that's like turpentine and it will eat right through these new environmentally correct finishes. This happened in my own driveway to my wife's Avalon.
