Hello everyone, so I have a 2012 ram 1500 and I have a lot of sap on blue paint an it looks absolutely horrible because the sap is black looking on the hood, now I’ve listened to Scotty about that goo gone stuff and I’ve tried it over and over again waiting 30 minutes to an hr in a shaded area before rubbing it off and nothing has changed I’ve used other products from armor all, and turtle wax but they didn’t do anything, any advice would be great I know ram’s aren’t very reliable but at the very least I want a good looking crap box lol
Have you tried rubbing alcohol on a warm day?
Seriously....I have had success with that before.
I have tried rubbing alcohol and it did do a little bit, but it stained the hell out of the paint lol I was too slow I guess with wiping it off I’m in Florida so it’s pretty hot down here or at least hot enough I think, the sap is as hard as a rock too
Ah yes....lol. Plenty hot in Florida and it will do that if left too long. I'm in Texas. Similar problems here so don't feel bad.
Since it's baked on, it's going to need some heat to come off.
Try warming it up with a hairdryer , and buffing it out with some cooking oil.
rubbing alcohol could work too. Hand sanitizer. WD40 etc..
I haven’t heard this method with cooking oil I’ll give it a shot, thank you
Cooking oil works for when I get sap on my hands. I figure it's safe on car paint so it's worth a try and can't do any harm.
Holy piss the cooking oil works like a charm man, these brand named crap need to take notes!
nice
I'm in Florida too, Citrus County.
If the sap is dried, what I do is to scrape it off with an old credit card. The plastic is softer than the paint but harder than the sap. Then follow up with the rubbing alcohol. Then wash and wax the whole truck. Use a good cleaner wax like Turtle wax. It works quite well. Wax the truck at least once a month and the new sap won't stick.
WD40.
