Best Answer

Scale is usually calcium from hard water. Vinegar will help loosen calcium deposits. Fill the iron with vinegar, and use it to steam press scrap cloth. Let the iron set for a few minutes, refill with distilled water, and repeat. Important step, since the vinegar will have loosened scale taht will come out when using water. Use distilled water to prevent scale buildup.
