    Bird Droppings Stains, or Tree Sap... With out ruining the material...

    Thank you, and appreciate you're replys

    I have just used some dish soap and warm water and it never damaged my tarp and it seemed to work well.
    Some of my freight hopping adventures on film over at my YouTube Channel... Oh and there is other stuff there as well!

    If it's silnylon, any mild soap should do fine.

    If it's an old skool canvas or something, then it's now a feature.

    Pine tree sap is disolved on hands by mayonaise. Might want to try a small test spot on your tarp and then hand wash in mild soap (to keep the critters from being drawn to your tarp).
