I keep a Magic Eraser by my iron and when I need to clean something off the bottom of the iron, I just dampen the eraser and run the iron over it until the gunk is gone.

You know you can use Stainless Steel Pot and Pan cleaner if the bottom is stainless. :thumbup:
|
I use the wadding polish for stainless steel all depends on what type of bottom is on your iron though . I feel your pain took hubby and i probably a good two hours to get it all off in the little holes and all but than I am very picky about it gg go figure. Good luck

i always take mine off with a dryer sheet (dont use steam) just a dry hot iron them before you use it to iron anything iron a scrap piece of material to make sure all the oil is off the iron from the dryer sheet
|
I heard about the used dryer sheets, also. Worked like a charm!

Hi. I'm new to the msg board (and to quilting)but thanks to all for the great ways to get the gunk off an iron. My iron is so bad, I may just have to try all of these suggestions. Thanks
|
would never have thought of using a dryer sheet. My new iron has a nothing will stick to it plate and when I got the goo from fusible on it, I just rubbed it with a dry washcloth and it worked like a champ.
|
Use a dryer sheet. Iron should be on cotton and just keep ironing over the dryer sheet.
|
And the dryer sheet really does make everything smell wonderful!
|
i had that once i dont rember what i used to clean it but now i put a plain white piece of paper over what i am fusing then the mess is on the paprer not my iron typing paper workes good
good luck |
