Yesterday I used a quick detailer and elbow grease. It came off but was time cconsuming. Today I added a bug and tar remover along with claying.

Yes there is sap on the film but not much, as the front of the car is the farthest from the trees at work where this is happening. I'll just go back to my old spot where this didn't happen.

I'm a bit more conservative but I would say 6-12 months depending on the application and the elements around the car.

example how many miles you drive per year, are you by the ocean etc.

If I have a clear bra on my car, do I need to treat it any differently in terms of washing? I'm planning on doing an ONR wash this weekend, and then claying / waxing.
