You just helped me save my grammys iron that she passed down to me. I was devastated. Thank you so much for this. I thought I was going to have to throw it away. I tried so many other ways to remove it but it didn't work. ❤️
Glad I could help
Brilliant, glad I have found this way of cleaning my iron. Took 3 lenor sheets to get it immaculate again. Thankyou for sharing this tip.
Glad it helped
You just saved my iron. I was absolutely devastated when I did that and I was thought I was gonna have to buy a new iron. You saved my iron and my day. Thank you so so much for this tip
Glad I could help
OH! My gosh. a huge thank you for this tip. Just did the unthinkable & sat the hot iron on sticky side of fusible fleece. Raced to computer and found your video. Had dryer sheets in with my fabric & wool collections so grabbed out 2 and WALLA!!!!. My iron was looking brand new in a few seconds.
I cannot believe how well this works, literally immediately just comes off with no issues. Thank you so much
You're welcome!
THANK YOU!!! This worked perfectly on my Rowenta DW-2070 with it's stainless steel plate that has about 300 tiny steam holes in it. I thought for sure it was ruined. I tried this tip and was thoroughly impressed how well the dryer sheets took off all the glue and left the plate smooth, clean and as shiny as when the iron was new!! I did have to use 3 sheets on mine, but who cares!! The Rowenta has a highly polished SS plate and it irons so well because of the smoothness of the finish, so that is why I was so worried it was ruined when I got the glue on it.
Truly, I am so glad I found your tip and again, thank you so much for sharing it with us!!
So glad it helped
Yes, mine it the same. IT worked.
Thank you SO MUCH for this!! Just had a mild panic but now everything is fine because of this video!! ♥️
I'm so glad!
Thank you! I really messed up a project the other night and got fusible webbing all over my iron, and the other thing I tried didn't help at all. This was amazing! Took me three dryer sheets, but it is clean!
Glad it helped!
My daughter did this exact thing to the entire bottom of her brand new iron. This absolutely saved it!! Couldnt believe it worked as good as it did! Thank you!
Glad I could help!
This was so quick and easy on my non-stick mini Dritz iron.
Just tried it since I’m new to sewing. Best tip ever! Thank you so much for this. It actually worked!!!
Wonderful!
Thank you!!!!! Oh my goodness I thought my iron was ruined ! I never would’ve tried this if you hadn’t posted this ! 👏👏👏👏 you are a lifesaver !
Glad I could help!
Thank you very much. Worked like a charm.
I just have to say THANK YOU for this video. For the first time ever, I did in deed iron a fusible interface on the wrong side. Unfortunately, I also got it on my ironing board cover. The iron came clean fairly easily. I did have to use 2 dryer sheets but it worked. Again, THANK YOU!
so glad it helped
THANK YOU. This is the first time I have gotten the fusing part on my rather new iron - which has a coated bottom, not just plain metal. Came off beautifully. Wonderful tip.
You are welcome
Wow and thank you so much .. I did just as you said somehow touched a scrap of fusible webbing with my iron, the good iron I had finally splurged decent money on to replace the cheap but practically useless $15 college days iron I'd had for over 40 years . I never thought an effective iron could bring such joy but it's amazing how it can really make a project look more professional, so I was very dissapoointed. Your tip worked like a charm . I tried a dye and perfume free sheet first and it was somewhat working, when I tried the regular sheet the sticky stuff came right off! So nice when a tip like this actually works and this is non abrasive so saves a Teflon finish from scratches. Thanks again
so glad it worked. A good iron can be the makingo f a sewing project. I love a good bit of steam!
Thank you so much! I just purchased a higher end new Rowenta iron and did accidentally press the front side of the fusible interface! Wow! Saved me from SO much frustration and possible damage to my wonderful iron!!!! Thanks!
LOL!! Me too!!!
Glad I could help!
I just did this for the first time and it cleaned the iron beautifully! Thank you so much!!!
You're welcome
Thank you so much! It worked. I thought I was going to have to throw my iron away. You saved it
Fabulous
Oh wow! I tried magic Eraser but only helped a little. I'll buy dryer sheets tomorrow!
good luck
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE TIP! I didn’t have dryer sheets, but I did have those swifter sheets and I used the smooth side to clean it. It worked really well
Glad it was helpful!
I just tried this and it worked! Thank you, I was just about to buy another iron.
Wow, you really saved me with this tip! I’m going out first thing tomorrow and getting some dryer sheets!
Glad I could help! warm the iron back up before hitting the sheets
I
It Works like a charm! Thanks for the tip. You have to perform the fix EXACTLY as described.
glad it helped
Thank you thank you!!!
I used my brand new iron to apply some iron-on patches and forgot to put some fabric between the patch and the iron.
I had a huge mess of melted plastic and fusible goo on the iron and was terrified I'd never get it off
I used about 5 dryer sheets and now my iron looks perfect! Thank you for saving my iron!!!!
Glad I could help!
OH MY you have saved me ! thank goodness , your WONDERFUL !!
Bless you. Glad I could help
This worked in seconds! I had tried several things and nothing worked and I found your video. Thank you! While teaching my niece to sew she placed the iron on pellon 809 and she was so distraught that she had ruined my iron. She and I cheered. Thank you again!❤
Wonderful! so glad it worked
This WORKS!!!!! I wish I could post before and after pictures. Holy Moses!!!!!! Thank you!!!!

Thank you for this, I could not believe that I would do it but lo and behold, I was using very light fusible and totally messed up. I went out and bought some tumble dryer sheets yesterday and I now have a clean iron again.
It's really super, glad it worked for you
I won't lie, I was not expecting this to work but I tried anyways and here I am with a clean iron. What is this sorcery!

You're welcome!
Thank you for such a great tip. It worked beautifully!
Glad it helped!
Give this woman a Nobel Prize! Saved my iron and myself from a meltdown!!!!!
Ah why thankyou!!
This really worked! Thank you. Another smudge on the iron plate came off using a Gillette 3-blade men’s throw-away shaver, and the teflon seems okay with no scratches.
Fantastic!
Thank you just did that very thing with my mini iron while fusing interfacing onto my fabric🤪 Your tip worked a treat. 💕
Glad it helped!
Absolutely fantastic. Ive just done this to my very sticky iron. Thank you so much.
Glad it helped!

You’re welcome 😊
Absolutely amazing. Great tip!!
Thanks so much!
Thank you so much! You saved my iron. It was covered in adhesive hem tape.
Glad I could help!
This really really works! Thank you for this fabulous tip. I had tried detergent, goo gone and scraping with my fingernail to no avail then I found your video. You saved my Rowenta Iron.
Wonderful!
Dryer sheet to my rescue tonight! Thank you for the video!
Glad it helped
Ngl, I watched with pretty strong skepticism. But, I figured I ought to try it before attempting to scrub with soap or chemicals. Took the glue that had been baked onto my iron for months *right off* like it was *butter!* 🤯
Absolutely genius tip; thank you so much for sharing!
HaHa that made me chuckle. Glad it worked
Thanks so much for this tip, it cleared my mess right up !
Glad it helped!
I have ironed on fabric fusing tape to adjust the length of my dress before I stitch it together. Also did the same with new tie around the neck shoulder straps which as you can immagine left the iron full if sticky mess. This tip cleaned the iron in less then 3 mins with no fuss at all! I used 3 of them sheets as my iron was in quiet bad state and OMG It WORKS!! Recommend to everyone if you have same problem.
Thank you sooo much!!!
It's a goodun
Yes! Yes! Yes! It worked!! Thank you for sharing this quick, cheap, and wonderful trick!
You're welcome!
Fantastic! Just had my own "melty moment" :-) so was so glad to find this tip. I previously used a Mr. Clean white sponge but I know those work by abrasion, so didn't want to scratch my iron.
Glad it was helpful!
This is going to save the day today. I was stumped on how to get the nasty off, and now it looks so easy!
Good luck
Oh my gosh this worked so well. I was trying to do an iron on transfer and didn’t realize what happened until I turned the iron over. I was ironing the transfer upside down. The sticky paper was stuck to the iron. Didn’t know what to do so I looked it up. Found this trick & tried it immediately. Worked great. I balled a fabric softener sheet and rubbed it over the iron. After a couple of sheets, it’s off. Thanks so much!
phew that sounds like it could have been a melty mess!
I accidently touched the iron-on with my iron but almost immediately realized it so it wasn't too awful. The iron cleaner I bought is in my sewing room. Somewhere. So I came looking for solutions and found you. I recently had a mouse and heard that Bounce dryer sheets would repel them. But the cinnamon worked so the sheets were looking for a new job. They found it. I felt like I worked at it a little more than you but my iron is shiny clean now. Thank you.
So happy you found a use for them!
Worked! Whew - trying to finish a dress for a wedding - didn't need to have to run out to buy a new iron! Thanks for posting!!
Glad I could help!
Wonderful tip...worked like magic..Thank you
You're welcome!

Glad I could help!

You're so welcome!
Brilliant tip! Thank you -thank you!!
You are so welcome!
Thanks! This works better than the old way of swiping the iron on some wax paper, then on a brown paper bag. That worked, but made a lot of smoke.
Glad it helped!
Thank you! About to go clean my iron!
Good luck!
Oh my goodness! You are a wizard! I just had general sticky stuff on the bottom of my iron. So quick and easy! Thanks very much for sharing this great tip.
Teehee I've been called a lot of things but never a wizard!
Worked like a charm! Thanks!
Glad it helped!
Awesome, this worked perfectly! Thank you😊
You're welcome!
This really does work so well and easily. Thank yoy
You are welcome
BEST. TIP. EVER. I had a couple of spots where I got interfacing glue on my iron. Wasn't causing a problem, so I figured I'd clean it eventually. Then today, I was making double fold binding with waterproof canvas. Well, the canvas separated and I got the waterproofing on my iron in a large spot. Tried Magic eraser, simple green and goo gone and nothing worked. Then I saw this video and, voila! Had to use a few dryer sheets and take my fingers into my own hands, folded the sheet up several times, and wiped quickly on the little remaining spots (don't recommend this. You have to be really fast) and now my iron looks like new. I wouldn't have believed it if I'd not seen it myself. Took less than 5 minutes. Never using anything else, especially the expensive cleaners, to clean my iron. Thanks SO much for posting this!!!! Brilliant. Bonus ... my house now smells like fresh laundry :)
I love this. So glad it helped
YES. This worked! Thanks. and it is not messy
Glad it helped!
I'm so happy I watched your tutorial before trying a few others that showed up in my search before yours. So simple and so effective and you are adorable!.Thank you for posting this fantastic solution and saving me much grief. :)
You are very welcome

Wonderful! so glad I could help
Bless your soul I wish I could give you a gazillion likes. thank you so much!

Thank you Claire. I used the stick, it actually made the sole plate worse, stuck in the holes, despair. Tried everything mentioned, a bit better, but not good enough.
I'll be so happy to try this tip.
Thank you.
I used to use the stick too, but ended up burning my fingers and clogging it all up. This really really works, it's amazing
Thnk you so much! It worked perfectly!
You're welcome!
Worked just like you said. Thank you so much.
