What the best way to get gum off clothes?

Can anyone tell me what's the best way to get gum off your clothes?

  • Answer:

    Hold an ice cube over the gummed area; once it hardens, the gum should peel right off without damaging the garmet. Or, put the clothing in the freezer for about an hour, then the gum should come right off. Any left over residue can be removed by soaking the area in white vinegar overnight.

The is a product online called Viper Wiper (www.viperwiper.com) this thing is great, it cleans all kinds of stuff with soap and water or rubbing alcohol. I used it personally on a dress that had gum on it from crossing my legs at a restaurant and hitting the table. Just take rubbing alcohol and scrub the garment, the gum will come right off.

Freeze it with an ice cube then carefully pick it off, in pieces if necesary and refreeze til it's all off.

Peanut butter. My daughter got some on her brand new computer chair and I had a fit. I had heard that you could use an ice cube and freeze it off ,but that didn't work and I knew peanut butter took gum out of your hair so I tried it and WHALA it worked! Try it! It might work for you!

Try holding ice cubes on it to make the gum hard and then pull it off. If it's been on there awhile..maybe mineral spirits or something.
