If you are unlucky, the sap has already reacted chemically with the paint work. Using alcohol to remove it should be done with caution. ALcohol can also react with some paints. So you might have to put your hand in your pocket and get some alternative paint restorer kit. I would seriously be worried if the sap gets all the way down to the bare metal, and allows the body work to come in contact with the outside air. My 900 had such a problem with the door. Only a pin prick from the outside, but a massive rust spot under the paint. Wasn't cheap to respray the whole driver's side, just to get the colour to match...
