Bob from Superior Threads also gives this caution on his Thread Therapy DVD. I'm not sure they are correct about how hot an iron gets, though. My Rowenta on its hottest setting could not make a dent in 60wt polyester bobbin thread when I tested it for melting. I'm waiting on the spool of Bottom Line that I ordered to test it with my iron. I'm just not sure who irons enough for the thread to attain 510 degrees Fahrenheit.
