Any ideas?
Try a water-based degreaser on it. You can buy it from any hardware or auto store. You’re looking for “alkaline salts” on the label somewhere
Try using white vinegar to remove the stain
How long after spraying did you iron? Fabulon contains a silicone emulsion (like Armor All) and starch. It separates into layers in the can, and that’s why it has to be shaken before you spray. If you spray it and then wait a while before you iron it will separate out and you can get stains from the silicone. But it should wash out with a premium laundry detergent.
disodium tetraborate decahydrate = borax = https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Borax
According to the msds…
Butane
propane
Isobutane
disodium tetraborate decahydrate
I believe the component of the Fabulon spray is Silicon Oil to help the iron glide. I have used washing up liquid but that doesn’t work. Still looking for a solution.
