2) you use wax paper to clean your iron? I've not heard of this before. how does it work?
I'm puzzled too ... as I am thinking a wax residue is building up on your iron ... and fabric.
And I'm wondering what potential problems that may create in the long run.
I have been using parchment as a pressing cloth at times.
No residue ... just acts as a shield between the iron and fabric.
For starch ... I've switched to Best Press ... you can get it nice and stiff, and I am finding it is not causing the scorching and residue I was getting from spray starch.
