Second procedure: vinegar
Vinegar is one of the most sought-after ingredients for household cleaning. It is used for almost everything, for cooking, for washing, for disinfecting, for removing encrusted dirt from any surface and for restoring the shine of steel like new.
To clean your iron, prepare a solution of vinegar and water that is good for the exterior, including the soleplate. The important thing is to wipe the entire surface with a cloth before storing or using the iron. To clean and polish the plate, you can also prepare a solution of vinegar and coarse salt.
You can also use vinegar to clean the boiler. Fill it with water and vinegar, half water and half vinegar is enough. Then turn on the iron and let the steam escape, thus expelling the limescale present inside the boiler.
