Dray 965 I have not read all the responses to you question so someone may have already mentioned this. I just purchased some fabric from a thrift shop and a piece of fabric had a glue supstance on it (i did not notice it until it got all over my iron) any way I REMOVED ALL THE BOND STUFF by placing a piece of computer paper on the fabric ironing on the paper and removing the paper while it was hot. I did this over and over again and to my surprise ALL THE GLUE WAS REMOVED. O I also removed it all from my iron also. Good luck would like to know it you were able to save all your hard work. yippie
