Treep Sap has been sitting on my sibling car for about 3 months. . . dont ask why. Finally after a good detail its gone. The areas seem as if its lost some of its clear coat. What can I do to restore some of the shine, and protect the car as well.

Is there a meg's product that would suit such a situation? Or am I looking at having to color sand and apply some clear coat to that region? (peble beige is the color).

THanks.

 

I would think a good polish and then wax would revive the shine pretty well. Meguiars makes a few polishes with respect to how abrasive you need it to be. I'm a big fan of the Nxt tech wax but haven't seen a Nxt polish yet....

Btw, what did you use to remove the tree sap and how well did it work?

 

I'm thinking just a good polish as well. I would go for the least abrasive process first - don't jump right into sanding first, obviously. Maybe some Meg's DACP or something equivalent.

 

clay bar!!! then wax... and polish it will be brand new, this happen to my brother a few years back, i did the clay bar and it worked like a charm, got it all off and gave back the feeling and shine it once had..

 

thanks for the info.

I can honnestly say I dont know how to clay bar, but I'm sure there would be instructions on the box, or a thread somewhere around here on how to do it.

thank again.

 

How would I get tree sap off my Windshield. I have tried sap remover but it has not worked very well. It causes little sap spots on my front windshield and I would really like to get it removed. Any suggestions?

 

nail polish remover worked for me

 

Got the Mother's Clay Bar Kit and instructions was on the box.

 

try the clay bar if not maybe some heavy duty compund and a buffer....you shouldnt of let it sit that long it eats the clear

 

Use a razor blade. It'll get anything off and you don't have to worry about scratching anything, (unless you really gouge the glass somehow) Don't do this on your paint though, just the windshield!!!!

 

yeah sap on glass is not too bad... sap on paint... is a bisch to get off... (don't use nail polish remover on paint...)
