Shine
What do I use to get rid of the shine on my black fabric after pressing it? I made a door runner and where there are some seams the black fabric is shiny. Some of it really stands out to me. I use best press and my iron is clean. How come this comes out shiny sometimes?

Iron shine is very hard to get rid of. That's one of the reasons I use a pressing cloth when pressing on the right side of fabrics.
I found this online. I do remember someone telling me that vinegar and water will get rid of the shine, but I've never actually tried it.

I have used vinegar and water on a pressing cloth to prevent shine on men's slacks. In the old days this was standard.
