Good day friends My day was calm even today, but I am just getting ready to do my training. I feel lazy, so I've been telling myself for 3 hours now that I'm going to start exercising now, but I'm still here. I've been trying to clean the iron from rust all day. I don't know if it ever happened to anyone that the iron plate has rust. I have tried many things and I cannot solve them. I tried toothpaste, baking soda on vinegar and nothing, my iron still looks awful and leaves marks on the wardrobe. Do you have any advice?

That never happened to me, because my irons are teflon coated. I hope you remove any water in your iron after ironing. Try Iron Out Rust and Stain Remover. We've used it on other things and it works.

I only have an anti-grease in the house. I'll try to find something against the rust. Although I also have an anti-calculus remedy, I could try that as well.

I don't iron any more and my old one has a coating. But there are rust removers you can buy. Some have used baking soda I have read.

I have not heard that they have anti-rust agents. I'll have to look. I tried baking soda and it didn't work.

You're probably right, but I always tell myself I'll buy another iron and never buy it.

How damaged plate is ? I mean small part of rest can be taken care of these kinds of tricks . Please note it doesn't work in all cases. I would suggest See if that plate can be replaced. Before giving it to repair shop do check for prize required to get it repaired doesn't go beyond cost of a new iron.

Where there are holes from which steam comes out, there is rust, and on the plate itself there is only glued ironing material.

I don't know if it is the same way in your country, but here in the US irons are so inexpensive that it would be easier to just buy a new one.

@Nevena83 I just buy clothes that don't need ironing. That solved my problem. Now I don't need to buy an iron at all. haha

We have cheap irons here, I think the cheapest is around 12 euros, but I don't think they are too good, and I can't afford better ones.

No advice for the iron except to take a break and do some exercise.

It sounds like you're water is the problem. Here many use distilled water in their irons but you may not have that there?

If you have paracetamol at home, try heating your iron then with a tweezer, rub the paracetamol on the rusty part. Wipe clean with cloth.
