With regular use, our sofa can acquire all types of stains including gum. Due to its sticky consistency gum can be tricky to remove from the sofa. Even if you don't chew gum you could accidentally sit in it elsewhere and then sit on your sofa. Furthermore, gum will show dark patches of dirt on the sofa over time and it will become more and more visible. There are ways to get it out.
Freezing
The best way to get out the gum is to freeze it. There are specific gum freezing cans where you spray it on the spot. After a minute or so the gum will disintegrate and become powder. You can them vacuum off and that's the end of it.
Steam
Steam cleaning equipment can also get the gum out of the sofa. These machines have a hose that sprays pressurized hot water. The water will get sprayed at an angle to loosen and remove the gum from sofa. This has to be done carefully on bits of the gum can spread.
After gum removal, you should get your sofa professionally cleaned. Often after the gum is gone this section on the sofa fabric is much lighter than the rest. It can look odd and uneven. Sofa cleaning can easily fix it.
