Don't throw away burnt stained iron, use this natural method to clean it and make it go back to its original state. With the iron still hot, pass half a lemon and let rest for 5 minutes. Then pass a sponge with vinegar long the whole sole plate. Pour some vinegar in water and remove all residue. Finally, pass a few drops of dish soap over the plate to clean it.

But there are other methods to clean a burnt iron:

- Salt:

Take a piece of newspaper and cover it with a generous amount of salt, warm up the iron and rub it along the paper from front to back until the stains disappear.
The stains will be drawn out onto the newspaper and then you''ll just use the iron.

- Toothpaste:

Put the toothpaste on the bottom of a cold iron and wipe it with a clean cloth, then turn on the steam, setting for five minutes and letting it stand. Then clean the bottom of the iron with a cloth.

- Laundry detergent:

Combine the detergent with a little warm water, dip a cloth in the liquid, and rub it on to the appliance.

- Candle wax:

Turn on the iron, rub a candle against any stains, and make sure it stays at a bearable temperature while you wipe off the wax with a soft cloth.
- White vinegar and baking soda:

Mix equal parts of white vinegar and water together and dip a cloth in the liquid and sprinkle a little baking soda on the surface.
Rub the damp cloth over the iron.

-Lime and baking soda:

Mix lime juice and baking soda, make a paste. Then rub it on the cold iron and let it set for five minutes.
Remove any excess with a damp cloth and heat the iron for a few minutes to let it dry.
