Tar and Sap Removal
Tar, tree sap, and baked-on bugs do not come off with a normal wash. Tar and sap removal uses its own chemical and extra time to soften them so they come off the paint without scrubbing.

Why is a wash not enough?
Sap hardens in the sun, and road tar sticks to the lower panels behind the wheels. Scrubbing them off by hand can scratch the paint. A dedicated remover breaks them down so they wipe away.
Why is sooner better?
Sap and bug spots left in summer heat can etch into the clear coat. Etching is a mark in the paint itself, so it can stay after the spot is gone. Light etching may improve with paint polishing.
Which cars need it?
Cars parked under pine and maple trees, cars that drove through fresh road work, and anything that just came back from a long summer drive.
Common questions
Is bug removal part of the Exterior Detail?
Every Exterior Detail includes bug removal. Tar, sap, and heavy baked-on bugs get this add-on.
Will it hurt my paint?
Tar and sap remover is made for car paint. The point is to skip the hard scrubbing that scratches it.
Can you remove sap that has been on for months?
Old sap usually comes off, but it can leave a dull spot or etching under it. If it does, I will tell you whether a polish could help.
