how do I iron this type of clothing?

Question

I have this one shirt and its low temperature iron only. How would I go about ironing the shirt if on my iron there is no low setting. Can someone please tell me what low temperature ironing is and how to do it.

Answer 1

If you don't have a low setting on your iron than keep the knob or dial at the lowest position, try moving it from left to right until you get the right temp. You can also use a thin soft Cotton cloth on top of what ever you are ironing to protect it from over ironing and scorching it.

Answer 2

Funny answer above ... but not very helpful ... if your iron has no low setting, which is odd, you can take a damp towel, tea towel with no fluffy stuff ... place it on your shirt and iron the towel ... it creates a steaming, dry cleaning effect ... simple and it works great for dress pants too!

Answer 3

id steam it in the shower... it works well, and u dont have to worry about ruining ur shirt. If you decide to use ur iron anyway, use a cloth over your shirt, and make sure its lint free, and perfectly clean, if its not, whatever lint or dirt is on the cloth, will transfer to your shirt

Answer 4

Maybe try to "steam it". Hang the shirt by your shower. Turn on the shower in the bathroom with hot water only. Shut the bathroom door. (You can also turn on the sink with hot water in addition to the shower to make more steam.) The bathroom will fill with steam and it will uncrease your shirt. (Just gently smooth out the creases with your hand while it's in the steam.) This really works!

Answer 5

Put it in the clothes dryer on Permanent press or if you have a newer dryer it may have a setting for wrinkles. That should help; it works for me.
