First, try to pick off as much as you can without scratching the leather. Try an interior cleaner that is apporved for use on leather.

Use duct tape.

Take as much gum as you can off the seats, then use duct tape to get the rest off.

Stick and peel until all of it comes off.

Take an icecube and rub it on the gum. You basically want to freeze it. It should pick right off.

Use the lemon sent Goo-Off. It will not fade or damage the interior.

I use this stuff even to pick-up candle wax off the carpet.

nope. arasol hair spray works great for ink. ive used wax and greas remover to clead greas spots on mine, lighter fluid works good on stuff too. just get a good leather cleaner/conditioner to use after using any thing on the seats.

oh and Soft Scrub is the best thing for cleaning dirty leather
