determine the appropriate ironing temperature by ironing a spot that
will not be visible when you wear or use the article. Start at a relatively
low temperature and gradually increase the temperature until you
obtain the required ironing result.
- Silk, woollen and synthetic materials: iron the reverse side of the fabric
to prevent shiny patches.

such as those made of synthetic fibres.
