Laundry Advice - Gum squished into 100% cotton shirt |
|
Well the subject line says it all. I have a very nice 100% cotton shirt in which I placed a wrapped up piece of gum and forgot about which then got put into the laundry and now I have gum squished into the shirt pocket. The dry cleaner says there is nothing they can do.
Any one have advice on how to remove the gum without ruining the shirt of course?

1. Harden the gum by rubbing an ice on the area.
2. Scrape the gum off using a dull butter knife.
3. Pretreat the area with an enzyme laundry pretreater or liquid laundry detergent
4. Wash as usual.
