Removing chewing gum

Anyway to remove chewing gum, not the actually gum on it, but a little bit after I tried remove all of it, there is just a bit left that you can't remove. Any other method apart from 'ice cubes' lol:@

You could try getting it all wet and gooey again by putting water on it then use a knife and slice it off lol.

Apparently you should put it in the freezer for about 4 hours until it freezes and then remove it.

Yeah nice and cold, so it goes solid, and then you should just be able to pick it off :) Wait I hope it's not on a head of hair lol, that would be dodgy!

Yeh, that works i think, isnt that what they do to get it off streets in London, freeze it with there spray things and then yank it up with a machine thing?

Edit: Remainings of chewing gum? Or do you mean the chewing gum is remaining after freezing?

How to get chewing gum off clothes:
"Put washing up liquid on the chewing gum (if spread in) and then add salt. With another piece of fabric rub against the thread of the garment."

Found the above tip, not sure if it works!

if you put fairy liquid on it and then salt and scrub really hard it should come off :)
