I dryed my son's new tennis shoes and the rubber soles decided to melt in the dryer into these tiny little beads from head to toe in my dryer! Does anyone know how to get all of these out without pulling your hair out first?

I'd try WD40 and elbow grease.

chewing gum freeze spray from a janitoral supply store and a plastic putty knife

Now that he chimed in, I like docduck's idea better than mine.

you still might need the wd-40 after freezing it off to remove any residue thou. So, mitch is still right on target :)
