Sap all over!
I was at a friends house last night for a barbeque and left my car parked under a tree (one of the few spots left at that point). When I came back out to leave I had sap all over my car. It looks like my car was sprayed lightly with a hose and the sap appears like little water droplets but when you touch it, it smears. What should I do? Will a regular car wash solve my problem? Oh, and I posted this in the detailing forum first but this forum gets more traffic so I figured I would post it here as well.

Yep, sap does suck a big fatty. I suggest doing a search, but what I came out with from reading other posts is that rubbing alcohol worked for me. You need to use ALOT of elbow grease getting that $h!t out, but be patient...it will come out.

Just got back from the car wash. I wanted to see if it would come off the easy way and use someone else's elbow grease for once. Worked like a charm; I guess the sap really hadn't had time to settle because the majority of it washed right off. Thanks for the info though. When I searched I saw that a lot of people had used alcohol but like I said, I wanted to try it the easy way first. I guess I got lucky.
