Gum on my MY07 leather seats
So the other day I happened to sit on some gum on my jeans and it got stuck where my thighs are. Without knowing I sat on gum, I sat on my seats and I have gum pieces stuck on it. How do I go with removing it? I'll take pictures when I get back from work today.

There are a few tricks.
Is this suede or nubuck? Alaclantara? perforated or protected normal auto leather.
If it is any of the last two start with ICE or freeze it with canned compressed air held up side down. Then scrape it off with your finger nail or a credit card. You want to make sure it is as hard as a rock. then it should pop off real easy.
The above works okay on carpet, I have better options for that if you need them.

Citrus gell from prochem.
apply a small dot to the gum.
work it in with a bone scraper, till gum is broken free and disolved.
pre condition with Ultra pac lvc
extract,
rinse clean
dry stroke.
