Iron Off and use the entire tube along with old toweling or paper towels, brown paper sacks. Follow the directions on the tube. The iron ALMOST came clean. Then if that doesn't work, I used salt [lots of it!!] and the towels, etc. That cleaned up the rest.

I did that the other day to.I took one of my dryer sheets and rubed it on the sticky stuff on my iron and it came off really easy.I did it with my iron still hot.I used a wet paper towel after to make sure there was nothing left on the iron.

I done that once. I warmed the iron and used a wet sos pad. Of course I unplugged the iron first. The sos pad didn't seem to hurt the sole plate of the iron and it got the gunk off. Just be mindful that the sos pad will get very warm. Good luck
