Gum ruined my favorite pants,help!
+5
Hello, community. My favorite pants was ruined at the show. I need your help, I have a picture of the problem.
Is there anything that I have around the house or buy to save my favorite pants. I was at the show, watching the new Arnold Schwarzenegger genisys. When the show was over I was told that I have red gum on the back of my pants, I was very upset. I welcome all advise to help save my favorite pants, thank you.

I have used peanut butter. Put it on and leave it over night then scrape it off and spray with spray and wash spot remover then wash them if these pants are washable ones. My son got some Duct tape on a good shirt and that is what i used. Worked very well

Methylated spirit should break down the gum so you can remove it. Or you could try an ice cube.

Ice works well. Let it sit till the gum is hard then scrape. Due to its oiliness, only if there is any gum left try PB and massage in well. Treat with shampoo or dishwashing liquid, and wash as usual.

I've found from unfortunate experience- gum left in pants pockets- that putting the clothes in the freezer makes it easier to remove. good luck.
