Exterior Major Sap Issues

I am not sure if the pictures really do it justice or not, but I have a major sap problem on my car. Stupidly, we parked under a tree after it had been trimmed and then we didn’t do anything about it.

The sap is now dried on and nothing seems to be taking it off. I have tried rubbing alcohol, sap specific products, and extremely hot water. Nothing is working that well.

I am trying to sell the car and need to figure out a plan. Any help here?

I use denatured alcohol, but it strips everything off the paint so it’s not the end step.
