Gum removal?

So.......I let my wife drive my car today. When she gets home she tells me that she stepped in gum and it's all over the car....inside and out. :sqnteek:

Any suggestions on removing gum from paint and carpet/floor mats?

Place some ice on the gum and use a comb or brush to lift it up. Vacuum

Most important step is to take spare set of keys from wife and revoke driving priveleges!

Use GooGone. It works miracles. Try it first on a small spot to make sure it doesn't cause any damage.

If the gum is on the leather you can use an eraser.
