Default need help please

well I gave my car to my younger brother earlier today, he went to the mall with some friends, brought the car back, and there is gum on my seats, 1 of his dumb *** friends ( 17 year olds) stuck some gum on the back of his shirt and when he sat in my car it stuck on the back rest of the seat, what can i use to get this out, because i tried peeling it off and its like stuck on there.

mods im not sure where this belongs but can you please keep it here for like a day,
thanks
