More tips from your Cleaner from Henfield
From time to time I come across chewing gum, which is always difficult for cleaners to deal with, but whilst most of the time one of these methods will work it really depends how long the gum has been in place.
For fresh gum one method I use is to place ice around the gum and allow it to go cold and hard then get off as much as you can with a blunt knife, this may take two or three tries.
For older gum a method I use is to apply ‘deep heat’ rub onto the gum then use a hair dryer to heat up the gum and remove – remember to use gloves for this one! – Once the spot has been removed wash with soap and water – a lemon or orange based cleaner is best.
Unfortunately none of the above can be guaranteed as it really does depend on the age of the gum – Just get the kids to put it in the bin!
