Gum on the car

How should I get gum off the car. I must have picked it up with one of my tires and it got thrown on the rim and all along the side of the car.

I have washed it twice and the gum won't come off. Should I try some bug and tar remover or what?

Yes , those two will work but if you don't have them try a cube of ice to make the gum hard so it can be remove.

Great idea on the ice! I am Polish and not that bright..I ended up getting that liquid freeze (for burns) which is compressed nitrogen. Sprayed it on the gum and froze right up. Best to do it at night or in shade.

Like MOOSE always says...less you touch it....
