What You’ll Need:
1 dishwasher tablet
Vinegar (as needed)
Cotton swabs (ear sticks)
A couple of sheets of absorbent paper (paper towels)
Step-by-Step Cleaning Process:
1. Prepare the Dishwasher Tablet
Start by removing any plastic or nylon wrapping from the dishwasher tablet. The tablet’s ingredients are designed to break down tough grease and limescale, making it perfect for cleaning the soleplate of your iron.
2. Heat the Iron
Turn on your iron to its highest temperature setting, but be sure to turn off the steam function. The heat will help the dishwasher tablet dissolve any limescale or residue more effectively. Be careful not to burn yourself during this process.
3. Rub the Dishwasher Tablet on the Soleplate
Using the unwrapped dishwasher tablet, carefully rub it directly onto the soleplate of the heated iron, focusing on areas with visible limescale and dirt. The tablet will begin to melt and dissolve the grime immediately, breaking it down within seconds. As you rub the tablet on the surface, you’ll notice the dirt and limescale start to disappear.
