Brilio.net - Electric irons have a hot plate made of iron. This type of iron usually allows the heat temperature to be adjusted as needed. However, if the iron has been used for a long time and often at high temperatures, the iron plate can easily become scorched. This not only interferes with the appearance of the iron, but also makes the iron not slippery when used. Instead of making clothes neat quickly, the clothes being ironed actually stick to the iron easily and take longer to become neat.
To clean the burnt crust on the iron plate, many people choose to wipe it with a cloth or tissue that has been dampened with water. It turns out, there is another trick that is much simpler using one kitchen ingredient. This trick was shared by a netizen on the TikTok account @teh4neu86. Let's see how.
First, turn on the iron and set the temperature to the highest. Then, prepare an ironing board that has been covered with cloth. Also put one or two sheets of paper on top to catch the salt. Well, this salt is believed to help clean the burnt crust on the iron, you know.
" Take 2 tablespoons of table salt or more, depending on the dirt that sticks," explained the owner of the TikTok account @teh4neu86, quoted by BrilioFood on Saturday (14/9).

Once the iron is hot enough, rub the iron on the salt. Don't forget to check occasionally whether the burnt crust is gone. If not, you can continue the process of rubbing the iron on the salt until the crust is completely gone.
After that, just rub the iron on the cloth until there is no more salt left. The iron is now clean from burnt crust and ready to be used again.
