tree sap removal

Ok, all you paint experts - here's your chance to shine <g> (pun
intended).

My father-in-law parked my wife's new car (well new to us) under a pine
tree and I have sap all over the hood, trunk, and on the top of the
right side fenders.  What should I use to take it off without damaging
the paint?  In some spots the sap is almost an eighth of an inch thick.
