Get your iron working like brand new with one simple trick

There is an easy way to clean your iron, once it starts to get those grubby marks on it.

After all, you don’t want to get your clean washing dirty before you’ve had the chance to wear it yet.

Spread some paper over the ironing board and sprinkle salt over the top.

First of all make sure there is no water in the iron and turn off the steam function.

Then turn the heat setting on the iron to the highest it will go.

Pass the hot iron over the salt.

This will get rid of any of the dirt that has collected on the iron plate.

Finally, make sure you get rid of all traces of the salt before you start your next pile of ironing.
