The sap comes down like rain in the spring, but it's kinda yellowish. Sticky as all get out and pretty much resists all soaps. Takes a pretty good scrubbing to get it off of the cars. I don't see it ever coming off of a cloth item.What I'm wondering is if you aren't seeing road dust or soot settling on the sticky surface? Heck even a smoky fire might deposit black stuff on the cover. If you want my advice, don't worry about it! The cover is a disposable item like a garbage bag. It's meant to get nasty. If it's gross thank your maker that this gunk didn't end up on your boat! Instead of wasting money on cleaning products, save up for a new cover.</blockquote>
