Iron Cleaning Stick Wigor SZTYFT H002 — for removing scale and residues from iron soles

Wigor Iron Cleaning Stick SZTYFT H002 is a solid, wax-like cleaner formulated to remove scale, burnt residues and deposits from iron soles and steam plates. It softens and dissolves contaminants so they can be wiped away, restoring smooth gliding and reducing the risk of stains on fabrics. The product is intended for use on cooled or warm metal surfaces of household irons and steam irons and is designed to clean without scratching or chemically damaging the soleplate finish when used as directed.

Advantages

The cleaning stick provides targeted removal of mineral scale, burnt fabric bits and residue from starch or spray finishes without the need for disassembly. It works on both flat and steam-perforated soleplates, helping to improve iron glide and steam flow. Its solid form is easy to handle, minimises mess during application and requires only a cloth or paper towel for wiping off dissolved deposits.

Suitable for

• Household dry irons
• Steam irons with perforated soleplates
• Restoring glide on irons with light-to-moderate scale or burnt residue
• Maintenance cleaning before ironing delicate fabrics

Key specifications

• Form: solid cleaning stick (wax-like)
• Intended surfaces: metal soleplates and steam plates
• Effect: dissolves and lifts mineral scale and burnt residues
• Application temperature: suitable for use on cooled or warm soleplates (follow safety guidance)
• Residue removal: requires wiping with a soft cloth or paper towel after application

How to use

Ensure the iron is unplugged if using on a cooled soleplate, or set to a low warm temperature if the instructions recommend applying to a warm surface; always follow the iron manufacturer’s safety guidance. Rub the cleaning stick gently across the soleplate to deposit the product onto contaminated areas, concentrating on sections with scale, burnt marks or deposits. Allow the stick to act briefly, then wipe the dissolved residues away with a clean, soft cloth or paper towel. For steam-perforated plates, wipe carefully around holes to avoid pushing residues further inside. After cleaning, test the iron on an inconspicuous fabric or scrap towel to confirm no residue remains before resuming normal ironing.

Usage recommendations

Use the cleaning stick periodically as part of routine iron maintenance; avoid applying to very hot surfaces, and always ventilate the area if using on a warm iron. Keep the product away from children and pets and store in a cool, dry place. If uncertain about compatibility with a particular soleplate coating, test on a small, hidden area first and consult the iron manufacturer’s instructions.
