Before leaving, clothes should be ironed.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Use after use, however, the <strong>iron gets dirty<\/strong>, so sooner or later, even if you don&#8217;t want to do it, <strong>you have to take care of its cleanliness<\/strong> and care that allows you to extend its life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Like all other appliances, <strong>the iron also needs regular maintenance<\/strong> and is also worth doing so <strong>to avoid staining,<\/strong> sometimes irreparably, <strong>freshly<\/strong> washed and dried clothes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Plank, because it is important to dedicate yourself to cleaning it<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>The iron obviously gets dirty on the sole<\/strong>, that&#8217;s where small dirt stains appear that come from the clothes. Other times they are simple calcareous stains, which must be avoided. Cleaning is necessary not only so as not to damage your clothes, but also <strong>because dirt makes it difficult for steam to escape through the holes<\/strong>, which are usually clogged.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\" id=\"attachment_519190\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/donna.nanopress.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/ferro-da-stiro.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-519190\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There is a useful trick to <strong>clean the iron correctly<\/strong>, leaving it as new, shiny, scented, in a word: perfect. It takes a few minutes and a little patience and you&#8217;re done.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The first trick of housewives.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A trick used by many housewives is to <strong>use parchment paper and coarse salt. <\/strong>Oddly enough, these two elements together are miraculous. There are some very simple steps to follow, which allow you to have an iron as good as new in just a few steps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\" id=\"attachment_519193\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/donna.nanopress.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/ferro-da-stiro-3.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-519193\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Take a sheet of parchment paper, <strong>place it on the table, sprinkle the coarse salt on<\/strong> it, covering it completely evenly. Then, turn on the iron, wait until it is very hot, <strong>pass it through the sheet of paper and then through the salt<\/strong> as when ironing. Press hard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can see at a glance how <strong>dirt and encrusted limescale stains disappear quickly<\/strong>. This way the iron is ready to use without running the risk of damaging your clothes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Second Procedure: Vinegar<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Vinegar is one of the most coveted ingredients for cleaning the house<\/strong>, it is used a little for everything, for cooking, for washing, for disinfecting, to remove embedded dirt from any surface, to get the steel back as good as new. .<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\" id=\"attachment_519192\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/donna.nanopress.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/ferro-da-stiro-4.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-519192\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>To clean the iron, make a vinegar and water solution<\/strong> that&#8217;s good for the outside, including the soleplate. The important thing is to wipe the entire surface dry before storing the iron or using it. <strong>A solution of vinegar and coarse salt can also be prepared to clean and polish the plaque<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can also use vinegar to clean the boiler, it is filled with water and vinegar, half water and half vinegar is enough. Then the iron is turned on and the steam is released, in this way the limestone is expelled from the inside of the boiler.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tips for using the iron correctly<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When ironing, mistakes are often made, which at one time may seem trivial, but are not at all. First <strong>of all, you have to avoid going over zippers and buttons,<\/strong> then to iron synthetic fiber garments it is recommended to put a cloth between the iron and the fabric, so that it does not stick to the iron. If you make this mistake, you will not only damage the garment, but also the iron. It <strong>is then better to use distilled water<\/strong> to prevent limescale build-up and to completely empty the tank every time it is used.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\" id=\"attachment_519191\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/donna.nanopress.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/ferro-da-stiro-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-519191\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you have an iron that is too old<strong>, maintenance can always come in handy,<\/strong> but you can&#8217;t expect miracles, because <strong>an iron that has had its day can&#8217;t have much to give<\/strong>. All that&#8217;s left is to buy a new one. Today there are several models on the market, traditional and modern, there are even vertical irons that allow you to remedy small wrinkles in a few minutes without having to take out the ironing board.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Those who iron little, <strong>can settle for the classic iron<\/strong>, while those who have a large family, can buy an iron suitable for ironing large quantities of clothes, for example a professional one, with a boiler. The latter needs more attention.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The iron is an ally for all housewives in the world, you can&#8217;t help but use it even if it&#8217;s hot.
