Well yuk, glad I'm not the only one with brain flight moments, Good Luck !!

Sounds like something I would do! NO soda allowed near my iron! Thanks for the tips on cleaning an iron with vinegar, everyone. Mine has been leaving white chalky mineral stuff on things when I iron, time to clean it!

:lol: :lol: Sorry, I can't help but laugh! It sounds like something I would do!!

white vinegar, same as you would use in your coffee maker. then rinse.

I always put some white vinigar in my iron with the water. it seems to make the steam steamier and wrinkles fall out of the fabric quicker.

Ah yes, I remember my Aunt saying, years ago, that if you want to get a nice crease down the front of a pant leg, to spritz it with vinegar water. The same to get out a stubborn wrinkle.

Sorry to hear of your problem, but yes I would do the vinger
also, hope it all comes out ok for you.

The vinegar does work. Remember, they tell you to run vinegar through a coffee pot to clean it and this is the same idea. It works

I'm with Texas Granny; vinegar is great and recommended for cleaning irons and coffee pots... Try it and let us know.

O.K. Now I have to ask, does the smell of the vinegar linger, when used on clothes ?? I know someone will know, and how did the Iron turn out?
