Add-on service
Careful spot treatment before sap stains or hardens further.
From $75
Short answer
Tree sap can harden quickly and may stain paint if ignored. Detail Pals uses controlled spot treatment instead of scraping or harsh removal.
This is quoted carefully because older sap, large coverage areas, and sun-baked spots can require extra time or may not fully release without paint risk.

Parking, access, water/power, travel distance, and weather are checked before service day.

The job is reviewed before we call it complete, especially for stains, salt, pet hair, and gloss work.
FAQ
Straight answers before you book.
Fresh sap usually responds well. Older baked-in sap may stain or require extra time, and we will not risk paint damage to chase a spot.
Light residue may come off during washing, but hardened sap is an add-on because it needs focused treatment.
