There are several simple ways to remove gum from the car floor mat. The most popular one is to freeze the gum off. This method will be especially effective if it hasn’t dried on the carpet’s surface yet. Take a piece of ice and attach it to the gum until it cools down. The cold gum becomes harder and you can effortlessly remove it with the help of a blunt knife or metal spatula. The eucalyptus and olive oils also can help: apply oil to the gum using a cloth and then carefully scrape it off with a knife. You can also remove the gum if you apply a dry-cleaning solvent or a degreaser on it and leave it for 5-10 minutes. The gum will become less sticky so you can remove it with ease.
