Getting Tree Trunk To Stop Seeping

I have a big maple tree in my front yard and from spring through summer it seeps sap everywhere. It makes a mess of my car and my neighbor's cars. Would tapping it in the spring reduce the amount of sap that seeps?

In March I cut down a River Birch tree because it was splitting. I left the trunk 10 feet high to make a wood carving. My problem is that the tree will not stop seeping. What can I put on top of the tree to seal it?
