    I have gotten iron hot and ironed over an old piece of soap. Then, iron over a piece of terry cloth. That usually works for me.

    Cool the iron, then set it on a damp towel for "a while" and then rub it off.....

    I believe the name of the cleaning sheets I use is Bohn iron cleaner. It's fast and easy AND reusable.

    I looked up the correct name. It is Bo-Nash. A great product.

    Set the iron to the hottest setting without steam, dampen a Mr Clean eraser and rub the iron back and forth on the damp eraser, it cleans wonderfully and easy.
