HELP - how to remove CHEWING GUM from car seat

[looneytune]

Got SIL here and she wants to know how to get chewing gum off her car seat. I said I'd try good old mumsnet for advice.

Anyone got any idea's?

I suppose the same with ice and chip it off?

Can you take the carseat cover off? If so pupt it in the freezer and freeze the gum, then it will crack off. If not, could try freezing it with ice, or maybe someone else will have another idea. HTH

cant stick car seat in freezer but could rub the gum with ice cube till hard then chip off. Heard southing about oils in peanut butter getting it off too..

Cheers guys, she will try this! :)

"sticky stuff remover" is what you need. Lakeland sell it and it smells lovely and orangey and a lovely smell!

WD40 is supposed to be good at removing chewing gum

lighter fluid works - niffs a bit but evaporates and doesn't leave a stain (prob a good idea to give it a scrub after though )
