Clothes are something people wear every day, and various styles of clothes bring different feelings to people's image. However, clothes will become dirty and smelly after being worn for a long time, and they need to be washed to keep them clean. There are many stains on clothes that are difficult to wash off. For example, chewing gum is something that is extremely difficult to clean. Let’s take a look at the best way to wash clothes that are stuck with chewing gum. Freezing method 1. Fold the clothes where the gum is stuck outward. 2. Place the clothes in a plastic bag, making sure the gum does not stick to the bag. If you can't solve the problem of the gum stuck to the bag, then put the clothes on top of the bag. 3. Seal the bag and place it in the refrigerator for a few hours until it is frozen solid. If you place your clothes in bags, make sure there is enough space so that the clothes cannot touch other items in the refrigerator, except, of course, the bag they are placed in. 4. Take the bag containing the clothes out of the refrigerator, open the bag and take out the clothes. Use a blunt knife or butter knife to quickly peel the gum off the clothing (avoiding piercing the clothing). Don't wait until the gum thaws; it is easier to remove while it is solid. If the gum thaws before you can remove it, put the clothing back in the freezer or use ice cubes. Ironing method 1. Place the garment with the gum side down on a piece of cardboard. 2. Adjust the iron to medium temperature. 3. Iron the clothes until the gum is no longer stuck to the clothes but has transferred to the cardboard. Peanut Butter Method 1. Spread peanut butter on all the areas where the gum is stuck. Keep in mind that peanut butter has the potential to seep into your clothing and discolor it because it's a greasy substance. To prevent peanut butter from leaving stains, it's best to use a liquid stain remover to remove the oils left by the peanut butter on your clothes before washing them. 2. Apply as much peanut butter as possible to the area where the gum is stuck. Use a scraper to gently scrape along the area where the gum is stuck until the gum and peanut butter stick together and no longer stick to the clothes. 3. Wait until the gum softens and loses its stickiness. 4. Remove chewing gum from your clothes. Vinegar method 1. You need one cup of heated vinegar. 2. Take a toothbrush, dip it in hot vinegar, and rub the area where the chewing gum is stuck. Be sure to do this quickly, as vinegar is most effective when hot. 3. Continue wiping with vinegar until the chewing gum is removed. If desired, reheat the vinegar for later use. 4. Wash away the vinegar smell on clothes. |
