i think eculyptus oil or tea tree? I can't remember but im not sure if they would be any good on nappies or not

Have you tried putting them in the freezer?

[Mrs J]

yes i did but it jsut rubs into the material more and its starting to put a hole in the material the more i pick at it :no: hmm i wonder if eclyptus is ok on them hmm

[Fuchsia!]

[Mrs J]

No i dont, i am so mad :mad: i pray this wash works :rolleyes:

i got chewy off some new trousers once by using a product called something like "big ted's famous goo remover" which you can get at the supermarket. It was brilliant.

Thanks to the person who left chewy on the chair at the cinema and I kept moving around in my chair to get comfy not realising that I was smearing chewy all over my bum. :mad:

If the nappies are PUL (as in not covered with a print) dont use OIL on them, it will stain.
I found this out by having a cotton wool ball in the bottom of the nappy bucket with lavender and tea tree oil on it - now i have a nice round oil mark on one of my nappies grrr

Hope you can get it out.

Try google?? Might have some other tips

[Mrs J]

they all have pul they are all AIO except one and its a sandman. There goes that idea washing is nilly finished hopefully its all gone. What about a strip wash with washing detergent ?? :confused:

[TJ]

Google came up with a few ideas

Freeze them
Use vingar on it,
Hairspray
Peanut butter (what the....??)

Try rubbing an ice-cube over the chewing gum, then pick it off with your finger nail.

I hope you're able to get it off, I'll keep my fingers crossed for you :fingerscrossed:

no ideas sorry... maybe u could email the company u got them from??

[Mrs J]

Well some are rid of it all together, one home made one, my nappy chappy sandman but my brand new white green kids is ruined it has turned into green greece stains and the pink and yellow ones only have it on the inside which i think will wash out eventually and atleast u cant see it, my bubblebubs minky has 3 small spots that just look dirty. i think id be best to leave them the way they are, only one is ruined.
