Default Gum on wheels..

Someone spat chewed gum on my wheels. Whats the best way of taking gum off? Will claybar work or is it just going to mess up my claybar

If it's soft, you can use ice to harden it then it will come off easier.

+ 1!! When you go to remove it be very careful and don't use anything hard and scratchy, it should almost chip off when frozen with ice.

get off as much as you can with a degreaser and something to scrub with. Don't scrub too hard or you might scratch the wheels. Then clay bar the rest of it off and you should be fine

Unleded Gas is great for just about everything!

Removes oil stains from concrete.... sets fire to just about anything you pour it on and light it!
