Ice get it cold and will chip right off. Peanut butter will also break it down but is messier.

well just get in there with a butter knife or spackling tool and start scraping. Add a little warm water on a sponge to it to loosen the gum and then keep scraping. If it is affecting the operation of the dryer you need to call a dryer repairman.

If you can get a small can of reall good air sprayers like for cleaning keyboards. If you get a big enough can you can spray the gum and it should start to frost over and freeze, You have to spray continously and it should freeze the gum. Then tap it with a hammer and it should bust like hard candy. I know you can do it with a small can of freon but I dont know if you can still get them. I know this works trust me.

The ice is a great idea. Anything remaining after that can be removed with a little WD-40 on a cloth.

Wow! What a mess! I feel for you! What if you tried to freeze it with an ice cube and using either a straight edge razor blade, taking care not to damage the paint, and scrape it off. Maybe instead of the razor blade you tried a butter knife or a plastic butter knife? Good luck! :(

Black and hardened: chip away with butter knife end, til you get down to new looking gum(be sure to have a paper towel catching the falling bits) dampen a sp onge apply small amount of ajax/ scouring powder, scrub. then damp rinse rest of ajax off. New and sticky: paper towel off as much as will loosen, again apply ajax/ scouring powder. Good luck.

Try Goo-Gone. It's available at Walmart and is supposed to be able to get rid of gum. Wow, what a mess. Good luck.

The best thing to use is a oil like WD-40. Just spray it on and rub. It works when kids get it there hair to. When kids get it there hair butter works good to. I hope that helped

Someone answered this awhile ago - They said to clean as much off as possible, then use WD-40! It also removes crayon marks from walls!

Mineral spirits on a old rag.... BE SURE TO LET IT DRY, that stuff is flammable..... just use a bit to get it off and let it sit with the door open for an hour....
