Took a _LOT_ of WD 40, but some time for it to soak in might have worked too...

Hurrah! Works perfectly Comments By: Steve on 2006-09-03

Just a dash of WD40 sprayed onto towel and hey presto - gone in two ticks with no problems whatsoever. After I had spent HOURS trying the ice cube tip which doesn't seem to work at all!

Just tried the WD40 and it has removed every trace of the nasty gum on our leather chair. Thanks for a great tip.

WD 40 on a towel. Rubbed three times. Can't thank you enough. Worked like a charm and saved the chair and the day. As a bonus it oiled the leather.
