I have the same problem in my driveway. Damn pine trees. :x

Acetone works, too.

3m glue and wax remover will remove just about anything without damage.

Before you spend a lot of money try Bon Ami. It was $1 at local grocery store. Cleaned up my Hobie 17 that had been outside for three years with no clean up. Even got rust stains out.
