Many people try to clean sticky stains on the iron by washing it with water or rubbing it with toothpaste. These two methods are not necessarily safe to use, especially if you use water, there is a risk that water could enter the ironing machine and cause a short circuit. Well, you don't need to worry because there are other tricks to get rid of sticky stains on the iron.

One of the tricks was shared by a netizen in a post on the TikTok account @qitara.id. After all, this trick is easy to practice because it only relies on one type of kitchen spice.

When the iron is hot, gently rub it directly into the salt. Gradually, the sticky stains on the iron will fall off due to rubbing against the salt. Do this process several times until the iron shines again.
