Aye, sap is no good for your paint work. Claying will get it off, but best to try and keep it off in the first place.
I'd put an outdoor cover on "the weasel" myself
I just picked up a genuine BMW one from eBay for £66 delivered... but am having a bit of trouble with it marring the bootlid :x

Are you lot on the pull or something 
Sap consists primarily of water, along with hormones, minerals, and nutrients and the chemical reaction creates a sticky residue which if landed on paintwork and untreated can cause long term damage.
If washed correctly, thoughly and treated with claybar this will remove the bonded contamination your car has received though some severe cases have needed machine polishing to finish and refine.
Add a quality sealant and wax to help prevent this happening again.
