I use the 0000 steel wool on mine too, but it takes a dremel tool and my husband's elbow grease to get it off. And it will be back in a month even without using sizing or starch. I think my Rowenta sends out spurts of very high heat from time to time. The next iron I buy with will cheap, so that I won't hurt so bad discarding it when unsatisfied.
