Removes chewing gum, candle wax, and other gummy substances from carpets, upholstery, wood, plastic, vinyl...nearly every surface! A combination of dimethyl ether and 1,1,1, 2-tetrafluoroethane, two liquefied gases, Spartan Chewing Gum Remover instantly freezes chewing gum, candle wax and sticky spills, such as strawberry jam or other gummy substances. The frozen brittle material can then be broken off or easily removed with a putty knife or scraper, leaving no residue.
