My friends son thought it would be a good idea to put his gum on my back seat. So what is the best way to remove gum from the seat? Thanks

 

No idea...I have heard that penutbutter will work and I also had a friend that got some stuff from some sort of janator supply place...it was in a can and you would spray it on the gum and it would like make it hard and brittle and the gum is supposed to crumble off (might be like liquid nitrogin). I dont know how that would work on leather...I think its for carpet but you can check. Now I dont know if either of these things work it's just what I have heard.

Let me know what you find that works!

 

Try freezing it by sticking an ice cube on it. As the gum gets hard, you should be able to pick it off. Water doesn't hurt leather, so don't worry.

The same technique is good for getting gum out of carpet also.

 

Heh funny story....I heard about the penut butter thing from my friend...his dumb girl went down on him with gum in her mouth So needless to say it was all stuck in his pubes...I think the penutbutter work for that

Try the ice thing...its the same concept as that freezy stuff in a can...just might work.

 

I've used Goo Gone to get rid of gum from other places (i.e. dryer, floor, counter tops)....I'm not sure how it will work with leather.

 

that liquid freezes the gum and makes it really hard.. might not be a godo idea to use that on the leather cause that would ruin it.


have that part of your car taped off with "Police line..Do not Cross"
lol

just kiddin.

try the peanut butter thing

 

I dunno... Peanut Butter would make a mess, and god knows what it would do to the leather.

 

Like I said...these are things that I have "heard" of before...I have NEVER tried any of them....but I would guess the liquid freeze thing would not be good on the leather if that is where it is...if its on the carpet i guess it would be ok. Let us know what you find that works.

 

I've found that an oil based liquid should work perfectly. Simply use vegi-oil or olive oil and a tooth brush and lightly scrub in small circles. Oilve oil works best (it might take quite a bit of oil). It takes a little while to get every last bit out in most cases, but most of it should come out very easily. Afterwards, just treat the leather a little.

The "Ice Cube" trick should do it. It will then peel right off. I've done it before.

 

Thanks for all of your suggestions. When I get home I'll try them out, and post the results.

 

let us know good luck

 

I got the gum completly off the seat, and I used ice. I felt ice would be the least messy and do the least damage to the leather. Again thanks for all the suggestions.

 

Now go and kick your friends ass for being an idiot and putting gum on your seat!! i would, what a moron he is..

 

oops my bad i read it wrong, i thought it was your friend not his son. sorry bro

 

Cum on seats??

 

No prob...I wanted to strangle that little SOB when he did it.

 

I bet, but it's all good now cuz it came off

 

Now I know what works...well at least one of them!! Thanks

No need to choke the lil SOB im sure he didnt know better...just shake tha shit out of him
