Despite the available alternatives in terms of garment care, the iron remains one of the most affordable and best options.

In order for the equipment to serve for a long time and successfully cope with the tasks set, it is necessary to adhere to special rules.

What do they consist of?

Fabric type

It is important to choose the temperature depending on the fabric you are going to iron. If you set the temperature too high, you can ruin the item.

There will also be carbon deposits on the sole.

Regular sole treatment

If you want your iron to always iron your clothes well, you need to treat the soleplate after each use.

Sometimes it is enough to wipe the surface with a clean dry cloth.

Prints and appliques

If you don't want to ruin your clothes, you should first turn the item inside out and only then start ironing. In this case, both the iron and the clothes will be safe.

Accessories

When using the iron, it is extremely important to ensure that no parts of the fittings are touched. Also, to improve the quality, it is worth using filtered water to fill the accessory.
