rubbing alcohol... bot dab at it, dont rub or you will scratch the paint, dab repeatedly till it breaks up... be sure to re wax though, the alcohol strips the wax right off...

cutting the tree down is the best remedy.. tree sap is about the worse thing to get on the paint next to bird crap.

WD-40 is also great for getting random stuck on things off your car.

WD-40 is definitly not safe for clear coats if applied directly and left to soak...
maybe a little bit dabbed on and immediatly wiped off
