Clean your burnt iron

If you iron, then you have had burnt cloth on the bottom of your iron. It is a sad experience but curable. Not only does it leave a scorch mark on your clothes, it leaves fabric on your iron. There is good news though. It can be cleaned and corrected.

Let's get started. Of course you want to make sure your iron is off and cool. With a wet rag and some vinegar you want to lightly wipe the bottom of your iron and remove the fabric. If needed you can add baking soda to the vinegar until it makes a paste. Gently rub the paste on the bottom of your iron and rub the surface.

Then you want to rinse your irons bottom surface with a clean moist rag.

Then turn your iron on to max to see if there is any waxy substances. Once the iron is hot run it over newspaper several times to remove any residue. 

For stubborn fabric that is stuck, just repeat the process.
