Ice helps as it turns hard the gum, then you can peel it off.
 
2 ways to get gum off..one is ice and freeze it and get most off and then use a conditioner to get remaining off...the other way is the spray air cans..tip upside down and a freezing liquid comes out and instantly freezes the gum and then pick it off with a credit card....

I have never tried the can freeze on leather so I can not say if it will stain or not...but never had a stain on any other material

This is just one of the reasons that I love this place. Ideas like this are genius (air can upside down and a credit card). I wanna go do it and I don't even have stuck gum.

Hey guys i want to thank you all for the information given, i will let you all know what i used, and how it turned out,:D:righton:
 
I had detailed a Mazda 3 not too long ago with a HUGE gum spot on the passenger side seat, and it came right out with ice and a little bit of Folex. These were also cloth seats, so I would assume if you replace the Folex with a quality leather cleaner you should be good to go. Let us know how you make out!
