Ughhhh....car is only 2 weeks old and my daughter had gum on her shoe and now it's on my carpeted floormat. :doh:

I know I promised I woiuldn't post again, but can someone please tell me the best product to use to get the gum out of my floormat without harming it?

It's about the size of a silver dollar and the floormats are dark charcoal.

Thank you for any help you can provide.

Ah, I don't get to post this video too often; it is one of my lesser-watched productions...[ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k_lfmBYbBSM]Removing Gum From Car Carpets - YouTube[/video]

The stuff we used is called Pro Solve Gel.

Hair spray if nothing else seems to be working.

Get a spray can of air that is used for keyboard cleaning. Turn it upside down ,it will freeze it ,then scrape it off. Cheap too
