Over time, irons can accumulate grime, mineral deposits, and starch residue from fabric sprays, leading to stains on your favorite clothes. But before you consider replacing your trusty iron, there’s a simple and somewhat unconventional method to restore its shine: using Coca Cola.
Step-by-Step Magic
- Preparation: You’ll need a shallow dish large enough to submerge the iron’s plate, and, of course, a bottle of Coca Cola.
- The Cleaning Process: Pour the Coca Cola into the dish and gently place the iron in, ensuring the plate is fully immersed. Let it soak for a couple of hours, or even overnight for tougher stains.
- The Reveal: After the soaking period, remove the iron and wipe the plate with a clean cloth. The acidic properties of Coca Cola work to dissolve the grime, leaving your iron looking like new.
