Any tricks of the trade for sap removal ?

After taking a conifer down in 25 degree heat my arms were bloody caked in sap. Its doesn't really bother me but when in comes to wash it off its a whole new story.

 

Obviously long sleeves and gloves are the best remedy :001_tt2:

 

Normal soap is a waste of time! Washing up liquid and a scouring pad was still a no go. Then moved onto a tub of industrial soap with bits in it. (not sure of the brand name). Still no luck!

 

In the end I had to resort to using a wire wool soap pad. It worked after a decent amount of scrubbing but wasn't the nicest feeling on the planet, especially when getting in the shower afterwards. made a right mess of my arm!

 

This is not me being a girl but just made me wonder if there is anything better someone's picked up along the way?

 

Cheers !
