HELP, Chewing gum on seat

[SeatDanny]

Well to cut a story short girlfriend and i were driving home from a gig when she noticed she had chewing gum stuck to her jacket, which inturn was stuck to my seat!!!!!

Has anyone had this problem before?
Any suggestions for getting the off??

Many thanks in advance!

get it as cold as you can (ice, freeze spray, etc) then pick at it.

dont rub it.

 

[Brummy]

yup.. as above.

There is a Stain Devil chewing gum remover available but try the ice cube trick first

Yep, as suggested freeze and pick rather than rub worked for me.
If you have an air duster ( comp air in an areosol ) turning it upside down and spraying will release the propelent as a liquid rather than gas which will instantly freeze on whatever it is sprayed onto.

you can get verruca freeze from the chemist this freezes a cotton wool bud at the end of a can, used before to remove chewing gum.

Do a search on the site.........there is a guide to this but be prepared to spend a day working on getting the gum carefullly out, with-out damaging the seat.
