Brilio.net - Various household appliances make daily work easier, including electric irons. This iron has a hot iron plate that functions to straighten and tidy up wrinkled clothes. The heat temperature can be adjusted as needed because it uses electrical energy.

However, like other household appliances, irons that are used for a long time can experience problems. One common problem is the surface of the iron plate that becomes scorched and crusty. This often happens when ironing clothes with screen printing or those containing plastic, which easily melts when exposed to heat. This melt sticks and causes crust.

An iron with burnt crust is difficult to use. The crust can make the iron stick to other clothes, so that the clothes become wrinkled or damaged. To overcome this, many people clean the crust with special ingredients such as salt or toothpaste, which are believed to be effective in removing thick crust.

However, there are other ingredients that can be used and are easily found in the kitchen. YouTube user SERABUT once shared an effective kitchen ingredient for cleaning the crust.

As reported by BrilioFood from YouTube SERABUT on Sunday (10/20), he chose to use baking soda and vinegar. To use these two ingredients, first prepare a bowl. Then pour in enough baking soda. If so, pour in the vinegar and stir until the baking soda turns into a paste.

Next, pour the paste onto the surface of the iron that has burnt crust. Spread it evenly. Now, when applying it, make sure the iron is off and the surface of the plate is cool.

After that, let it sit for 20-30 minutes. This process will allow the baking soda and vinegar to soak into the crust. That way, the crust will start to soften slowly and be easy to clean later.

After being left alone, the burnt crust does indeed appear to be starting to soften. In fact, this crust can be rubbed off with bare hands. However, for maximum results, you can rub the burnt crust with the help of a soft used cloth. After the crust is lifted, immediately wipe it using a cloth.

Sure enough, the result is cleaner than before. Now, if there is any remaining crust that is still stuck, you can take the remaining baking soda paste. Then rub it on the burnt crust. Do this process until the surface of the iron is completely clean. Finally, wipe again until the surface of the iron is clean and dry.

In addition to being cleaner, this method is also safe to do continuously. Because with this method, the non-stick layer on the iron plate will not be damaged or peeled off. This makes the iron more durable to use.
