Every Sunday my kids, grandkids and there sig others come over to hang out and have a nice dinner. I been noticing lately someone has been throwing there gum out around the property near and around the door. Not knowing who it was I just gave a general request that please throw your gum in the garbage.

Saturday I went to take a ride about and felt my left foot some what awkward on the floor board. Next stop light I looked down and lifted my left foot up. WTF!!! This big humongous glob of green gum meshed and mushed between my boot grids and the floor board grooves. What a mess it makes. Its Wednesday and I've gotten most of it off. Someone suggested WD 40. I'll try that next time.

A big yes on the wd-40 to get lots of gunk off.
takes tar off just as good as mineral spirits - wd is more expensive but usually at hand in most shops.
I used to use it for removing adhesives off tools and general tool cleaning since it displaces water.

NOTE: it is slippery so if you use it on your floorboard wash it off with dish detergent until it squeaks or you'll slip off. I know that from experience.


You can have it cheap.
You can have it fast.
You can have high quality.
PICK ANY 2....
