There are many ways to remove chewing gum from clothes, one of the most popular is freezing.
How to clean
It is necessary to place the item in the freezer for a while, waiting until the chewing gum hardens.
After such a procedure, it is quite easy to scrape off the chewing gum using a regular knife.
What other methods are there
Place thick paper or thin cardboard on the affected area.
Heat the iron to medium temperature and place it on paper. Don't rub.
After half a minute, remove, and the remaining “rubber” fibers can be cleaned with a brush and carpet detergent, or cut in a machine (if it’s clothing).
Moisten a sponge or cotton pad with acetone or nail polish remover and apply it to the stain.
