Spray with WD-40 to remove the gum from your jean; then wash and dray; It will be gone very fast

hold an ice cube on it. it makes the gum hard and you can pull off the big part. for the rest, you can put some type of material like another fabric to add fabric to the gum, then rub it in a circular motion to pull most of it off.

just put on some ice over it then once the gum hardens you can scrape it off. this should only take 30 minutes. then put it in the dryer for 30 minutes.

I would avoid the peanut butter due to oil stains. Ice works pretty good to get the bulk of it off. Just rub it real good and let the gum harden. Then scrape of with dull knife. Then follow up with hairspray but again be careful because some fabrics react differently to hairspray. If your jeans are not already faded then hairspray may leave a spot. Spray and Wash after the ice may also do well. If you can, wash in hot water. Good luck.

Place a couple of ice cubes in a baggie. Rub over the gum to harden it. Scrape off with a table knife (not a sharp one). After gum is gone, rub with liquid lighter fluid to remove stain. Wash as usual.
