HOW TO GET A PROFESSIONAL IRONING FINISH
A normal iron generates only a small quantity of steam. In this case it is necessary to produce
steam constantly in order to eliminate crease in the fabric being ironed.
A professional ironing system works rather differently. The fabric is first made slightly damp by
the steam and then, in a second phase, dry-ironed in the normal way. This means that every
tiny crease is removed and your garments are ironed to perfection.
