A 17-y-o friend has contrived to get Blu-Tack, now semi-dried, on the inside of a leather or pseudo-leather belt, trousers for the holding of up with.

I've looked at Bostik's Blu-Tack Web pages, at the UK.d-i-y Wiki, and at Cleanipedia, without success; a Google search for [Blu-Tack removal cleaning] finds too much.

What does the group recommend?

I had some stuck on wallpaper for 10 years I used a poundshop screwdriver flat blade obviously. I guess some on here would prefer an angle grinder.

Now I might be wrong, but I've had to do this once a year for a long time. I
then had a sudden (what psses as) a thought: it's basically PVA, so I
carefully removed as much as I could by rolling some Blu-Tack over the area
then tried a very 'damp' but not dripping rag (need wipeable/spongeable
finish on the substrate) and it all came off.
Needs patience as it's not readily soluble in/miscible with water, but it
does the trick.
