Default Do I need a solution for....

do i need a solution to remove gum from the grooves of my stepboard??? it's still kinda white even though i've rubbed off most of it. this happened when I was in vegas, parked my Gx in the hotel lot, came back with bubble gum on my damn stepboard! someone had rubbed off the gum from their shoe onto my stepboard. now who da hell would do something like that? I mean come on, do it on the sidewalk, not on a stepboard. Now i'm having a hard time removing it from the grooves, I don't want to use any sharp object to remove it as it might leave scratches behind. thanx in advance

only prob, my ice cubes are TOO BIG!!! the gum is in between the grooves of the stepboard. if it wasn't in the grooves, it would be all gone by now.
