How can I remove chewing gum from Velour

[jacobo]

My 3-year-old daughter got a very sticky Vitamin gumball stuck all over her Velour sweatsuit. This gum is stickier than most gums, and velour can be a very easily damaged material, so does anyone have any suggestions on how to get it out? Please help, as the sweatsuit cost me $90 and this is only the 2nd time she's worn it. Please help. Thanks,Jay.

Put the sweater in a bag and put it in the freezer for a few hours - the gum will solidify and you should be able to pick it off quite sucessfully

Alright. Some of you who replied should either stick to replying to the question (GuavaHalf)or read the entire question (Alej). It was a Vitamin gumball. It is 100% of daily vitamins, with no sugar or saccarin etc. So, don't worry about what I paid for the sweatsuit or the fact that I'm giving my daughter something she needs (vitamins). For those of you who gave actual answers, thank you. Unfortunately, the freezer and bag of ice tricks haven't worked, because the gum doesn't really harden enough (it's not like regular gum because of the vitamin content and ingredients). Any other suggestions would be appreciated, as the pants are still chillin' in the freezer.
