Removing chewing gum

Chewing gum removal does not have to be painful. We have an excellent tip that works a treat. Just read the comments from people who have tried it. It really works - see the bottom of the main article.



Isn’t it wonderful when you come home from a night out, or if you have been to work on the bus, train or whatever and you find a big ugly lump of chewing gum stuck to your clothes?

09-5-2008thanks! this is the first time I've ever been able to remove chewing gum and I'd put it off for a YEAR but now, realling wanting to wear the skirt again, I tried this technique and it's just come off after about 2mins of rubbing with salt and washing up liquidemma
08-5-2008Washing up liquid + Salt: Fantastic - this method really does work!! Not sure how the person discovered this but it saved my suit trousers.DrGonzo
06-5-2008Cheers! Did the trick in no time. Can't believe someone left gum on the leg of my office desk - but at least my expensive jeans aren't ruined. Many thanks - and to google, of course.edmundpw
05-5-2008I first tried the ice cubes which removed alot of the chewing gum from my car seat,but it was very ground in,then tried the washing up liquid with rock salt and it brought the seat up a treat. An excellent tipaaron
03-5-2008Sat down on the bus and stood up to chewinbg gum stuck to my backside and leg. Tip Worked Superb, thanks a lot.Martin
29-4-2008I cannot believe this worked. Some idiot hid gum under an office desk - and it was all over my suit trousers (very expensive) I tried the ice cube - but it was too ground in. I also tried new gum - I thought by putting more gum - it would stick to the old gum and pull it out. Well the ice cube trick...moreMark
29-4-2008After rubbing it hard for 2 hours using up 1 litre of washing up liquid and about a kilo of salt it went off with a piece of my trousers. Nice one!unluckyjeans
28-4-2008Yet another testimony that it works. Thanks for the tip.Mehi
21-4-2008This really works! Very fast as well. Much better than any other recommended method.Thom
19-4-2008Will this method work if the gum got washed and dried? Apparently someone left gum in their pocket and I wasn't aware...now there's gum on several items...including new table linens! Can I still use this method or is it set in from the dryer?Charm
16-4-2008My son has just come home from school with gum that was left on a radiator all over his blazer, in despair I turned to google and thank goodness you came up, absolutely brilliant works straight away, I'm now a Super Mum!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Noele
