What the best way to get gum off clothes?

What's the best way to get gum out of your clothes?

  • soooo i wont get into detail but the question is pretty straight forward. i got some gum in my pants and i need to know how to get it out, and just washing it probably wont work. thanks(:

  • Answer:

    There are a few methods, for example, Add the garment to boiling hot water, soak through and use a dull kitchen knife or a toothbrush to scrape it off. Freeze the garment inside a plastic bag in a freezer, making sure the gum is facing outwards, but not touching the bag. Then scrape it off with a kitchen knife as quickly as possible while it's still solidified. Lastly, try ironing the affected area until it disintegrates and is no longer noticeable. Then just wash it normally and it will come out :)

leave it in the freezer overnight and u should be able to snap it (it cant of sunk into the clothes for u to do this) if it doesnt come off after 10 mins of trying then take it to your local dry cleaning store to get it out

Wash your pant with kerosene oil,don't try to wash whole pant,wash and rub with strong brush or by hand.after the smell of kerosene will last so wash with soap.freezing and breaking may be result to tear of pant.
