Pine tar was a commodity only relevant during the age of wooden ships, and only in towns with boat-based industries. We need a modern commodity with the same outcome as tar and feathers. I can think of a few things but don't want to fedpost
consider corn syrup and
as a 
egan alternative
No one is going to be as unhappy being corn syrup'd and bean'd as being tarred and feathered unless both are reallllyyy hot
Or if it's in an environment where that leaves them absolutely crawling with bugs
