How to avoid shine or iron marks
• Use a well padded ironing board (especially for wool).
• Iron garments inside out whenever possible.
• Use a press cloth such as a clean pillow case. For some fabrics, e.g. wool,
use steam or press with a slightly damp cloth, using light pressure.
• Always iron delicate fabrics, inside out on a low temperature setting.
• Keep the iron moving.
Ironing does not need to be tiring
• Stand upright when ironing and always adjust the ironing board to the
correct height (the iron handle should be at the same level as your elbow).
Experiment until you find the position that suits you best.
• Keep your elbow over the ironing board and only move your lower arm when
ironing. If you move the iron slowly it is less tiring.
• Allow the weight of the iron to do the work, do not press down unnecessarily.
