I'm learning the hard way that ironing Wonder Under on the wrong side can do damage to your iron. ::sigh::

Bummer! Try a magic eraser to remove it.

UGH I learned that same lesson. If I may suggest, you may want to get a presser sheet for this reason. My presser sheet is made out of pliable plastic. I put it on top of my applique/wonder under stuff and then iron on top of the presser sheet.
Not much help after the accident but maybe for future? I also can offer two other suggestions for cleaning the iron: |
Sorry hit enter too fast... 2 suggests are:
1 - iron cleaner - I buy mine at JoAnns it comes in a white and blue "toothpaste" tube. You heat up the iron, dab this on a terrycloth towel and then iron the towel. 2 - a dryer sheet - one of my friends used this she just ironed the hot iron on it. She laid it on the "edge" of the ironing board and rubbed HARD. Hope this helps. |

I was putting the binding on a quilt last night, S. Schamber's method, with Elmer's glue in a Roxanne's glue container. Left the glue bottle a little too close to the iron. Went to pick it up, and as the iron had melted half the bottle, the glue went ALL.OVER.THE.PLACE. So I share your pain. :roll: |
Oh ....I feel your pain!!! For as many years as I have been using fusables .. I still once in while make that painful mistake.

Magic eraser will clean up the iron. I love those things!
|
so sorry that happened to you :cry:
|
Haven't tried it yet but recently read in a quilting magazine to put a row of salt on a towel and run the hot iron over it to clean iron.
|
Oh!! Wonder Under is good stuff, except when you iron it on the wrong side. Magic eraser IS a good iron cleaner.
|
Bummer!!!!!
