Avanti Quattro

I hand washed the car yesterday and found all the topside surfaces "sprinkled" with tree sap. I can pick them off with my fingernail, but theres so much it could take days.
Any suggestions for removing this without harming clearcoat? Will a claybar do the job or do I need a petroleum based cleaner-polish like Meguiers?

Thanks,
Mike

Meguiars and others offer a product called overspray clay. Essentially, its a clay bar that you just rub lightly on your paint after first spraying the body with a lubricant. Call s few parts stores or auto body supply stores, I'm sure you'll be able to find it.

I just used dishwashing detergent and it worked well but I had to remove waxes to Zaino anyways

so you will have to rewax either way.
