Description

Learn about ironing and pressing equipment and tools. There are many types of irons available. Some irons have more features than others, such as automatic shut off and the number of steam holes. Some irons have separate water tanks, such as steam generators or steam boilers, that serve the purpose of keeping the iron splattering and spitting water. Some boiler systems have water reservoirs, so that the tank can be filled without waiting for the iron to cool down. Some newer irons can use tap water, instead of distilled water. This video also discusses the fabric types and heating temperatures, cleaning the iron sole plate, and pressing cloths. Spray bottles can be used to spritz some fabrics. Seam rolls or hams can be easily sewn or made using instructions in this video.
