Faultless makes an iron cleaner, but if you have a dryer sheet, put it in your ironing board with something old under it , get your iron hot and iron back and forth over it. In just a few minutes it will be good as new.

Vinegar is good and baking soda. I saw on fons and porter to use the cleaner designed for the no scratch cook tops to clean your iron.
