Explanation:

Coat the sticky area with coconut oil. If the layer of latex is thick, cover it completely and allow it to set for a minute so that it has a chance to work into the texture. The oil will loosen the sticky residue without damaging the surface underneath if soaked for a minimum of 5 minutes.

Answer:

Dissolving property of kerosene is used to get rid of jackfruit gum.

- Jackfruit contains a natural sticky latex gum which is very sticky and difficult to remove with normal polar solvents like water.

- In this case,we need non-polar solvents which can easily dissolve this latex gum and not harmful for our skin.

- Kerosene is such non-polar and non-harmful solvent which can dissolve and remove the jackfruit's gum with no problem.
