scritch Senior Member Grand Prix 500 Favourite Bike: Vincent Black Shadow Join Date: May 2009 Location: Seattle Posts: 144 Extra Motorcycle: Montesa in the shed	Pitch removal - Time for a drink! I have Douglas firs over my driveway, and in the summer heat they weep lots of sticky pitch. I finally discovered a good way to clean it off, even when dried up! Ethanol appears to be the best solvent so far, so I just use a bit of denatured alcohol, whiskey being too expensive. Cleans right up, but be sure to test it on a hidden spot before you try it on some paint or plastic.
