I learned how to quickly and cheaply clean the sole of the iron from carbon deposits. Sharing a simple trick
How can you wipe the sole of the iron from old soot. My tips can help you
We use the iron almost every day, and it is possible that sooner or later black spots appear on its sole. Why is this happening, after all, we try to carefully use any “home helpers”? No matter how hard we try, the soot will appear over time, and our task is to get rid of it as quickly as possible.
What cleaning method is applicable at home?
I think every home has a small first aid kit. In it we store medicines that will be needed in case of emergency. Today we will pay attention to paracetamol, these are tablets that effectively lower the temperature in various colds. In addition, the drug has anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects.
But today we are not talking about how the drug is used at a temperature, but about its cleansing properties.
How should paracetamol be used to clean metal surfaces?
So, we have an iron, on the sole of which a black deposit has formed. The situation is rather unpleasant, because the further use of the household appliance is a big question.
To iron clothes without problems, we need to clean the metal part of the iron to a shine.
First, preheat the iron to medium temperature. Then we begin to clean the stains with a tablet. It can be seen that they begin to disappear even with a little effort. We just have to wipe the sole with a soft cloth. If soot remains in some places, repeat the procedure. The iron has changed and shines, now it is not afraid to entrust ironing even snow-white shirts.
Cleaning an iron with a Teflon soleplate
If your "home assistant" is very dirty, it does not matter. We will also try to clean it in the way described above, that is, with the help of paracetamol tablets. The process is complicated by the fact that the sole of the iron is corrugated, and soot has settled in the most inaccessible places.
Let's start, as in the previous case, by heating the household appliance. Set the regulator to "two" and wait 20-30 seconds.
Break the tablet and treat the dirty surface with it. You will have to repeat the operation several times, regularly wiping the sole with a dry cloth. As you can see, the efforts were not in vain.
The iron is ready for further use, and you do not need to worry that it may soil your clothes. Immediately noticeable, the method works great.
