3 Tips for Removing Gums on Carpets

Thinking about ways on how to remove gums that stick your carpet fibers? We’ll help but discussing few tips for removing gums on carpets, such as: freezing, using oils and applying heat.

Below are 3 tips for removing gums on carpets:

Freezing

Freeze the gum with an ice pack. Place several ice cubes in a reseal able plastic bag and lay it on top of the gum wad. Alternatively, spraying the gum at close range with compressed air from a computer duster, or placing a piece of dry ice on the gum can also freeze it quickly.

• Freezing gum is most successful when the gum has just gotten into the carpet and is not ground deeply into the carpet fibers.
• Be sure the gum is frozen solid and not just cold before moving on to the next steps. Source: WikiHow

Using Oils

Another approach to answering the question of how to get gum out of carpet is simple. Grab some WD-40, a fingernail brush and spray detergent or a degreaser. Follow the steps below.

1. Spray a generous amount of WD40 directly onto the gum stain.
2. After applying the WD40, let the stain sit for a few minutes.
3. Use the fingernail brush to remove the stain, scrubbing the gum stain in the same direction (choose right to left or left to right – just continue in the same motion you start).
4. Keep applying WD40, followed by a vigorous scrub with the brush.
5. Repeat as necessary.
6. To clean the area, spray the detergent/degreaser directly onto the affected area.
7. Rinse a clean sponge with warm water and apply the sponge to the carpet.
8. Gently clean the area until stain is no longer visible. Source: SpotRemoval

Applying Heat

A simple method to remove gum from carpet involves using a hair dryer. The softened gum should stick to a cleaning rag or plastic bag and release the carpet fibers as you lift it away from the floor. Proceed slowly to avoid harming the carpet fibers and be prepared to repeat the blotting and lifting process until the gum is removed. Reapply heat as the gum starts to harden. The hot method of gum removal should be used with caution. If the carpet is wool or a synthetic material, heat that is too high can melt the fibers. Watch for any melting while using the hair dryer. If in doubt, test on a small section of carpet in a hidden area. Source: AngiesList
