Tree sap on black convt top--HELP!!

I've scanned the previous threads on tree sap but didn't run across one dealing with sap on cloth. Any suggestions appreciated before I start experimenting. My fear is that my trial and error could result in color removal along with the sap. If you know of a proven effective product or method that doesn't bleach the spot I'd appreciate hearing from you. Thanks.

not sure, but i would try 50/50 with rubbing alcohol and water on a towel.

maybe it needs to be stronger..

From experience with Aspen sap, 303 Fabric Cleaner removes it with some scrubbing. Be sure to re-waterproof after you are done. I use 303 Fabric Guard for this. Ofter you can find a package deal with the Cleaner & Guard.
