If you've ever had to remove pine pitch, you know what a pain it can be. Take a little pat of butter and rub it gently into the pine pitch. It won't take long and you can wipe it right off.
Now all you have to do is clean off the butter.o.O
Try not to use too much butter, as it is also good on pumpkin and/or zucchini bread....:clap:
Thanks Radar, I usually use a lighter, then the butter to treat the burn, next time I'll try the butter FIRST :-O
So you are saying that butter will improve the taste of foods we pine for? 😛
Thanks for the tip!
I've had great results removing pine, and other, pitch from saw blades with oven cleaner. I also understand the manufacturers of the saw blades frown upon this practice because of the possibility of harming the solder that holds the carbide teeth on the blade.
At any rate, it has been an economical fix.
GOO GONE, but it tastes terrible when I lick it off!
Just use Isopropyl Alcohol for pine pitch.
Carburetor Cleaner is the duct tape of solvents.
:-S
good tip.
I also found a good solvent... the best use of WD40 I have found.
New roof in progress, lots of tar...
first spray hands, rub until dissolved... then dish soap (no water!) until well mixed, then wash with water. beats gasoline.
RADAR!!!!
Man, you don't look so good.....what happened to you???? B-)
When I get sticky pine pitch on my hand out in the field I just rub the available native soil on it.
Later on when I get back to the hotel I wash with soap and water, no solvent required.

I forgot to add:
It's a good idea to wear gloves and protective clothing; unless you don't like pine pitch on your gloves or protective clothing.
:snarky:

From someone who has cut pulp wood (pine), I always used motor oil (dissolves the pitch quickly) and then soap and water. For removing road tar from your car try WD40, it'll start running before the WD40 cn begin to dry.
