Parchment paper or the release paper from the fusible itself works just as well as an appliqué sheet or teflon mat. To clean the iron, you can use an old toothbrush and vinegar or a Mr Clean Magic Eraser. Neither will scratch a teflon sole plate. There are lots and lots of other remedies that work with various degrees of success as well.
