I am looking for a product that removes tree sap from the paint without destroying the clear coat.

Any suggestions would be a huge help.

My wife uses dryer sheets, and says it does a good job. Sorry I don't know what kind, but you could give it a try, I don't think its going to hurt your clear coat.
