Worked with this issue for 30 years. If the skylight is glass and doesn’t have any film tint or UV film applied to the outside (It never should but I have seen it). Then go to a janitorial supply company and get a window cleaning razor. This will remove the pine tar. But only use with glass!
be careful this is extremely sharp. Apply soapy water to the area (dishwasher soap and water mixture) to make the blade slide on the surface. It will take some pressure and to get through the tar. After the main Tar is removed a faint image Is sometimes remaining. Just repeat to remove that. Important not to use the retractable 2 inch razor this isn’t for windows. A good window cleaning razor woul look something like this picture
kerosene cuts pine sap. Even safe for removing from vehicles. Just a dot on a rag and rub on spot. Rinse.
