How to clean the soleplate of your iron

Salt. Take a dry cloth and sprinkle a few tablespoons of table salt on it. Heat the iron, then rub the cloth sprinkled with salt over it until the burn stains disappear. Finally, let it cool and wipe with a damp cloth.

Vinegar. If the burn stains are more difficult to remove, vinegar will certainly be the right choice for you. Heat some white vinegar, soak a cloth in it and then pass it over the burnt plate. If this does not remove the stains, add 2 or 3 tablespoons of baking soda to the hot vinegar and repeat the process. Don’t forget to clean the plate before putting it away.
