    I have an Appartment and my parking spot is right under a pine tree. I get pitch all over my truck. What is the best way to clean my truck and get the pitch off??

    As said, rubbing alcohol. I had a big glob of pine sap on my truck this summer, the alcohol dissolved it away instantly. Use a tissue or cotton. It wont hurt your paint, but will strip the wax away in the immediate spot.

    I bounce it offa stuff.
    Think the chainsaw was meant for the tree. Goo-gone would probably work, just rinse with soap and water after and apply a wax because it'll strip off whatever is on it. I would imagine alcohol would strip the wax too.

    Not in my experience, but I just put the alcohol on the cotton and wipe, versus soaking the side of the truck.

    Detailers use alcohol to strip wax off. Usually a 50:50 mix. Just remember it strips wax.
