How to Get Gum Out From Inside of Your Shoe

It is easy to remove chewing gum from your shoe.

Removing gum from your shoe, whether it is inside or out, is a tough job. However, you can aid in the gum's removal by simply freezing it. The coldness will cause the gum to harden and become less sticky, which eases its removal.

Things You'll Need

• Plastic bag
• Knife

Instructions

1. Place your shoe in a plastic freezer bag and press the bag onto the gum so that it sticks to it.

2. Stick the bag in the freezer.

3. Leave the shoe in the freezer for about an hour.

4. Remove the bag from the freezer and pull the bag away from the shoe after the gum has hardened. The bag should pull the gum away from your shoe.

5. Scrape off the remaining gum using a dull knife.
