My iron has a crusty black build up on the heating part. When the setting is put on high, this build-up gets on my clothes. Is there anything or anyway I can clean the iron?
Sounds like some wiring was fudged a little during installation. Probably trying to cut costs by omitting a relay or diode. You should let them know.
You could scrub the iron with steel wool. However, I would suggest just getting a new iron.
Hi there - do you regularly use starch on your clothes? I am a sewer, and find that after years of ironing with starch it will build up on my iron and ironing board - but usually this takes many, many years. Something may have been ironed at a heat too hot for the fabric, and the fabric may have melted. I don't think you can clean it off, unless maybe you get the iron very hot, and try to wipe it all off onto some scrap fabric of some kind. If it is in the steam holes, then your iron may be ruined. You might have to buy a new iron, and be very careful to use the correct settings so you don't melt anymore fabric. Good luck! :)
first make iron not so hot, then with stick candle (not colored candle) white one, slowly pressed it on the iron, then pressed it on a small piece of cloth that you dont want anymore, repeat it several times until those crusty black disappeared completely
Sounds like the auto start is having a brain fart, I would let someone check it before you run into worse problems
