LOL, I had just been trying to get gum out of my clothes today, and this really works! Ok, I don't know if you have this store around you, but it's Hancock Fabrics, and I know this sounds weird, but there's this stuff called "Grandma's Secret Spot Remover", and it gets out all stains on any colors, even gum, oil, red lipstick, and a lot more. If you have no idea of the store I'm talking about, then search online: "Grandma's Secret Spot Remover" on google or yahoo, and it will show you a page of it. It works like Magic! jk, but it does work really well!
Hope I helped!~SMILE=D

1.Put the piece of clothing or whatever in a plastic bag.
2.Place it in the freezer.
3.After a few hours, take it out and get something preferably sharp to scrap of the gum.
It works really well...good luck!x

I had washed a pair of shorts with gum on it (not knowing it was there). Afterwards, I had quite a time getting it out, but I used peanut butter, rubbing it in with a toothbrush, rinsing, and repeating until it was gone. Then, I had to machine wash as usual.

I've stepped on gum a million times. What has worked for me is the product GooGone. It's a yellowish liquid in a clear container with black lid. You can buy it at JoAnn Fabric stores.

ice. - on the skin until it's hard. or you can buy goo one.
on clothes and sheets. wet the items and put in the freezer until the gum is hard and then peel it off. it may take several attempts.

Put ice on it then scrape it off with something like a butter knife not the jagged side or a credit card.

I never heard of the ice method, but peanut butter works for me, as does Goo Gone. Hope it helped! : )
