Chewing gum is one of the snacks that many people like because of its sweet taste and chewy texture. However, when gum accidentally sticks to clothes, it can be a big problem. Chewing gum has a strong sticky nature, making it difficult to remove from the fabric fibers without leaving residue or damaging the clothes.
When gum sticks to clothing, it can damage the fabric fibers if removed forcefully. Gum often soaks into the fabric fibers, especially on soft or textured materials such as wool and cotton. If not removed properly, gum can pull on the fabric fibers and cause the fabric to tear or become rough.
On the other hand, if the gum is not removed immediately, the stain can become increasingly difficult to remove, especially if the gum is exposed to heat or pressed deeper into the fabric fibers. To overcome this, some people usually rely on cooking oil . So cooking oil that is applied between the gum and clothing will make the stain easy to remove.
Unfortunately, using cooking oil can leave stains that are also difficult to remove. Instead, you can imitate the trick shared by Facebook user Fitri Rahmawati. Through one of the videos she uploaded, she admitted to using only one food ingredient to remove gum from clothes without leaving a trace.
