Any petroleum based product will remove tree sap…gas, lighter fluid, WD-40…don’t know what it will do to the denim though.

When I was working with arborists, we used it all of the time with pine sap.

When we were done cutting down big pines, you were so sticky you couldn’t stand to touch anything.

Is it tree resin ??

[Jcaz6996]

Yes mate sticky shit ..
what’s next lol …
still going to leave it until the end of the month fingers crossed it washes out .

Don’t fancy spraying WD40 on it

[Daniel San]

I hope so mate !!
would love to see you on podium

[Jcaz6996]

@Daniel-San mate would love that but never going to happen. Wishful thinking

[Jcaz6996]

Hoping for the best ..Google says Hand Sanitizer to remove tree sap ,so I put that on it and gave it a gentle rub with a scrubbing brush and rinsed it off under the tap
Looks like it’s worked ..

[goosehd]

...hand sanitizer has alcohol in it...

[Jcaz6996]

@goosehd good or bad idea ? Shit

[goosehd]

I don't know how it will react, but that's the same reasoning as my recommendation. It dissolves the resin/sap...

Let us know how it turns out.

[Jcaz6996]

So far so good just drying it off with the hair dryer

[RoxRocks86]

Denim is not safe at work thats for sure. Ended up with paint on my pair…again

[Jcaz6996]

Surprisingly is all off.. tree sap and the oil

Usually if I’m doing anything messy in work I like loose joists then fitting caberdeck floor boards have to use D4 glue that’s some messy shit that goes on your clothes it’s never coming out so I put waterproof bottoms on over my jeans just to keep them clean.

[Jcaz6996]

@RoxRocks86 have you managed to wash it out?

[Daniel San]

now that’s the secret of those sensational fades
will start wearing waterproof bottoms over my jeans

[Jcaz6996]

that’s it mate my Top secret ..

I got a bunch of acrylic paint on a pair of XHSbb last year and used rubbing alcohol to get it out. Did not damage the denim and after lots of coaxing, removed the paint. Just used little amounts of it, it helped loosen the paint spots and I was able to use a metal pick to remove it, bit by bit. Took the better part of an hour but they are paint-free now @RoxRocks86

Thanks for the tip @Oaktavia Will give rubbing alcohol a try. It was latex paint drips so was able to peel/scratch most of it off, but there’s still some embedded.

@Jcaz6996 do you wear a waterproof top as well? You always manage to keep your denim tux looking clean for what you do!

The home stretch to a one year wear! Might have missed a handful days due to vacation in really hot weather or pool days.
