Ironing is an important method of finishing need at home:
• Ironing – cloth is spread on a flat, hard and padded surface.
• Hot iron is moved back and forth along the length of the fabric with pressure.
• Different fabric have different heat resistance. Synthetic clothes require very little heat to crease out their wrinkles.
• Cotton and linen are ironed at high temperatures.
• The most important precaution is the maintaining of appropriate temperature for ironing. If higher temperature than required is used the clothes may scorch or burn and low temperature will not iron out creases properly.
