Default tree sap

I have tree sap all over my car. Used Zaino car wash and then polished the car with the brown pre-polish and then the pink polish. Car shines well put it has a rough finish still with all that crappy tree sap. Any suggestions on how to remove the tree sap for good?

Thank you.

Zaino polishes have no abrasives so they themselves will not remove the sap. What I would do is clay the area with a Z18 or other high quality clay bar.
