How to clean an iron at home with salt

Housewives often notice that the sole of the iron is covered with strange stains.

They can appear due to filling the sprayer with unfiltered tap water. The iron can leave “burnt spots” because it has “walked” over items not intended for ironing. Indelible marks also appear when the wrong temperature setting was selected during the ironing process.

To restore the device to its original appearance, you can purchase a special pencil for cleaning the surface of the iron. The heated iron is treated with a special agent, after which the residue is removed with a piece of cotton cloth.

But if you suddenly don't have household chemicals on hand designed for cleaning iron, common salt will come to the rescue.

This simple and working tool is in every kitchen, and in terms of effectiveness it is not inferior to the method described above.

Just sprinkle some salt on a piece of paper and iron it a few times with a hot iron. As a result, the device will be as good as new.
