cleaning off plant sap
 

i have a few fir trees in pots which i have to move about occaisionally. i
nearly always get that incredibly sticky sap on my hands from the trunk
which is so difficult to clean off.

the best way i have found so far is to use a pumice stone with scouring
cream. has anyone a better solution please?

No. The solvent to use is methylated spirit.
