Use sticky roller? Vacuum? Wash or rinse the pad? Use pressing sheet layer between wool pad and item being ironed/pressed? Thanks,
That is the main reason I made a muslin ( I used good quality muslin) case for it. Works great. Keeps the fibers away from what I am pressing and I can wash it when it gets yucky. I just used safety pins to close the open end.
