How do I remove rust from my iron?

Question

My iron has some brown build up on it, which I assume is rust. When I try to use it, it transfers this brown gunk onto my clothes. How do I remove the rust or whatever it is, from my iron?

Answer 1

CLR

Answer 2

You go buy a new one, cause im pretty sure nuthing works

Answer 3

Buy a new one yuck you dont want that c**p going over your fresh clean clothes.

heres a tip when you buy a new iron use filtered water or distilled water because using tap water causes calcium build up and will take years off your irons life. use filtered water in ur kettle too as your kettle will work for much many years.

Answer 4

It's called CLR at your grocery store

Answer 5

my mom always has that problem with her irons. she's never able to fix it...she's even tried taking it to someone who knows what they're doing.

she ends up buying a new one all the time though, because nothing works.
