Default Tree sap

:mad I just noticed a blob of tree sap in the worst possible area: inside the rear deck emblem :cuss It is all on the paint, and in a very inconvenient cleaning spot. I'm worried that if I apply a solvent to let the sap dissolve, that it will run underneath the emblem and dissolve the adhesive.l I don't want to replace the whole emblem, what can I do?

3M Adhesive Remover is also a good choice.
