(center console/rear) scionracerxb 02-25-2004, 01:30 AM there are a couple of ways...one way is to use goo gone. another way is to buy a can of computer duster cleaner (basically compressed air) and turn it upside down and shoot it at the gum. it will freeze the gum solid and you can chip it out easily :wink: GruntStyle 02-25-2004, 01:32 AM there are a couple of ways...one way is to use goo gone. another way is to buy a can of computer duster cleaner (basically compressed air) and turn it upside down and shoot it at the gum. it will freeze the gum solid and you can chip it out easily :wink:hell ya, that is a awesome way good lookin out man!!!!

Be careful when using it to keep fingers, eyes, small mammals away when spraying it upside down. It can cause a _____ of a frost burn . its_ikon 02-25-2004, 02:26 AM ice has worked in the past for me scionracerxb 02-25-2004, 02:33 AM ice has worked in the past for me same effect as the compressed air, but a little more wet. Maybe dry ice would work :wink: EMU 02-25-2004, 02:45 AM theres this cool stuff i bought at Micheals craft store its called UNDO LVXB 02-25-2004, 02:51 AM dude i mean no disrespect but does anything GOOD ever happen when you drive your car? You seem to have the worst luck possible. sorry to hear yet another account.

If you don't want to play with cryogenics, get some clean sand, wet it, put it on the gum, and then rub the gum back and forth. It will stick to the moist sand better than the moist carpet. Keep working at it and it will come out. Vacuum up the remaining sand and let dry. The appropriate consequence for the [insert blue word] gum chewer will be left as an exercise for the reader.

You seem to have the worst luck possible. sorry to hear yet another account. yea man :( it's depressing at times. do you remember the church incident? lol. sucks. hopefully things will start looking up and i'll have women stuck in the rear instead of gum. i'll try the compressed air (i'll take some from my work if i remember) wd40 was reccommended but im not sure if that will harm the fabric or not. does goof-off work well also? cause i already have some of that. thanks for the concern lvxb. i need to go to vegas! sensez [eric] ScionRI 03-02-2004, 01:48 AM in response to the "on the gum, or on the chewer" question, .... yes. truenfalse86 03-02-2004, 08:23 AM peanut butter.... no joke |
