Product Information
Full details
Maxima Chewing Gum Remover is designed for professional cleaners and facility managers who need a reliable, high-performance solution for removing stubborn, dried chewing gum from carpeted surfaces. This specialized formula excels at breaking down hardened adhesives to allow for easy extraction in high-traffic environments like pubs and clubs; however, it is strictly intended for carpet use and should be patch-tested on delicate fibers before widespread application.

FAQs
Can I use this on leather or upholstery?
No, this product is specifically formulated for carpet fibers and may damage delicate materials like leather or upholstery.
Does it remove fresh gum?
While it can be used on fresh gum, it is most effective on dried, hardened gum deposits.
Is it safe to use around customers in a pub?
It is recommended to clear the area or provide proper ventilation during and immediately after use as the fumes can be strong.
How long does it need to sit before I scrape the gum?
Allow it to dwell for at least 30 to 60 seconds, or until you observe the gum softening significantly.
Is it necessary to rinse the area afterward?
Yes, blotting the area with a damp cloth afterward helps remove any excess chemical residue.
Troubleshooting
Gum residue remains after first application
Repeat the application process, ensuring the gum is fully saturated and allowed to dwell for the recommended time before scraping.
Visible stain left on the carpet
Blot the area with a mixture of mild detergent and water to neutralize any leftover chemical agents, then rinse with clear water.
Irritation after handling
Wash the affected skin thoroughly with soap and water. If irritation persists, seek medical advice.
