I use that stuff in the tube (sorry I can't think of the name). Just a bit takes everything off. It's made for irons.

I accidently set my hot iron on the wrong side of iron-on interfacing, what a mess? I tried commercial iron cleaners too much work with too little results. A friend suggested dryer sheets and they did a great job.

I've used steel wool on a metal iron and wet green scrubby on a T-fal iron.

Dyer sheets are fast and easy and WORK great

I have used Gunk be gone, worked well.

This is why I love that shiny stainless steel soleplate on my Rowenta. I use 0000 steel wool. Comes right off.

I use salt on a brown paper bag and then run it over wax paper.

Interesting you recently posted this. I have been using Faultless premium for years and there has been very little build up on my iron (none noticed). Because I was using fusible recently I just cleaned my iron. Today I tried Niagra in the manual spray bottle. All I did was iron 300" of binding in half - I use starch when I do this to hold the fabric together while I iron it.
When I looked at the bottom of my iron it was horrible. the only part of the iron without gunk was where I actually iron the the binding in the middle of the iron. I recently added a Steady Betty ironing board cover, but I don't think that has anything to do with it. I suspect different starches act differently. |
Yep. Dryer sheet works great.
