Is it possible to remove the sticky residue from the underside of a patch from the Sole Plate of an Iron ?

Question

MY TEENAGE DAUGHTER WAS IRONING & MADE A HUGE "BOO-BOO".

Answer 1

There is a product out there called Goo-Gone. It works like a charm on any gooey, sticky stuff! I use it all the time!

Answer 2

Well this should be easy, First you must sponge or spray on White Vinegar on the sole plate allow it to soften the residue for five minutes, then use a piece of Tin Foil balled up and scrub the sole plate, this should come off if not repeat process. There is also another idea if the Vinegar don't work but I am sure it will, try a prduct called Goo Gone. Always use a cool iron when performing any of these steps Good Luck !

Answer 3

In the laundry section of your grocery store they sell sole plate cleaner that will take anything off the iron. Follow the instructions on the bottle. Use scouring pads only as a last resort (especially if you have a teflon sole plate). Good luck!

Answer 4

Take a piece of rough material (denim etc) and wet it with Club Soda. Turn the iron to the highest setting and iron the material. The heat, soda and material should clean it off.

Answer 5

heat your iron, put some regular household salt on a flattened brown paper bag, iron the salt with the iron, rubbing back and forth and it will remove and the residue, then just wipe clean.
