Onions and Scorch Marks

If you still iron clothes and scorch a textile while ironing, try this old trick. Rub a cut onion over the scorch, then soak the cloth in cold water for 1 hour. Rewash and then iron. The spot should be gone.

 

Hi Kot,
When I scorch an item I immediately pour Hydrogen Peroxide over and re iron, no wait.

Thanks!
I'd not heard of this so thought I'd share.

 

Iron? What is this "iron" you speak of?

 

A goohlf club you silly.

 

It's a metallic element, used mostly to make fake jewelry.
