3 ways to remove chewing gum

In addition to the effective HG chewing gum remover there are, according to other websites, other ways to remove chewing gum from clothes.

1. Peanut butter
Peanut butter seems to be a good way to remove small bits of chewing gum from clothes. Smear some peanut butter on the chewing gum and wash the article of clothing at approximately 40 degrees. Since you wash the clothing immediately, there should be no oil stains from the peanut butter.

2. Benzine 
Benzine is also an option for removing chewing gum from clothes, jeans, carpet, etc. Dampen a paper towel with benzine. Rub carefully over the chewing gum and it will gradually come loose. 

3. Lighter fluid
Use lighter fluid for cleaning chewing gum. Lighter fluid will eventually harden the chewing gum so that you can scrape it off.

Unfortunately, these household remedies do not always work. And there is still always a chance that peanut butter will leave stains and lighter fluid has a horrible smell. So try HG chewing gum remover, developed specifically for this purpose.
