  1. my mom uses ice and it works really good


  2. hair spray then use ice.. and it flakes off..

  3. use alittle peanut butter or ice it works

  4. Believe it or not, Hairspray really works wonders.

  5. Freeze it with ice and then try to cut it off with a flat-head s***w driver.

  6. pop the clothes in the freezer and then chisel it off. peanut butter works in hair, not sure about clothes. then try to take as much off as possible and wash it.

  7. Rub ice on it until it hardens and pick it off. It is slow and tedious but it works. Good Luck.

  8. you cant... dry cleaner can

  9. try freezing it with ice and then chipping it off

  10. Hold an ice cube over the gum until it freezes.  Then, you can chip off the gum residue.

  11. get a sponge, put it in hot water, it comes off easy

  12. There are a few methods that you can do:

    Ironing Method:

    Place the article with the gum facing downwards onto a piece of cardboard.

    Set an iron to medium heat.

    Iron the clothing until the gum is no longer on the article, but has been transfered to the cardboard.

    Peanut Butter Method:

    Spread peanut butter all over the gum itself. Keep in mind that the peanut butter is likely to get on the fabric and may stain it because it's a very oily substance. In case the peanut butter does leave a stain, use a liquid stain remover to remove the oils left by the peanut butter prior to washing. Alternatively, WD-40 works amazingly well.

    Scrape gently with a blunt knife, exposing as much of the gum as possible to the peanut butter, which adheres to the gum so that the gum no longer adheres to the fabric.

    Wait until the gum gets softer and loses its sticking ability.

    Scrape the gum off the clothing.

    Liquid Laundry Soap Method:

    Cover the gummy area in liquid laundry soap.

    Use a toothbrush to rub the laundry soap into the gum, breaking it up.

    Use a blunt knife and gently scrape at the gum.

    Lastly, use your fingernail to scrape the remaining gum off the fabric.

    Throw it in the washing machine.

  13. Stick item in freezer overnight,use a bread knife to scrape the gum off while still frozen.Gum in hair? Best is gobs of peanut butter,work through hair till gum slides off the ends,then shampoo well!

  14. when I was a life guard we used to get it out of towles by freezing it with an ice cube and scraping it with a butter knife!

  15. Ice is the best way. Put it in the sing. Drop a bag of ice onto it.

  16. hot water or try rubbing alcohol

  17. you get those aerosol cans ( used to dust off keyboards ) hold it upside down and freeze it. then just pick it off. dont worry it wont damage anything.

  18. You can try running really hot water over the gum. The sugars should melt out of the gum and it should slip off. Hope this helps!!!

  19. get an ice and freeze it and pull it out

  20. Hmmm, I think you should try scrubbing it while the clothing is wet. That's how I get it out of my clothing.

  21. freeze it with ice, goo-be gone.

  22. Try ice to freeze it. It should peel off easier.

  23. Put your cloths into the fridge (icebox) ...

    Let it frozen

    The chewing gum can be rubbed away very easily.

  24. this might sound real stupid but rub ice on it back and forth.

  25. Hold an ice cube on it until it gets really firm, and then chip it off.

  26. rub ice on it and it should just slide off....

    good luck!

  27. yup its called ooopppss it works miracles

  28. PULL IT OUT THE BEST Y0U CAN AND WASH IT

  29. I dunno... Boiling them in water may work. Just be more careful not to get any in your clothes next time. Don't iron them!! :D

  30. I've heard rubbing ice on it or using hairspray before washing.

  31. freeze it off
