On social networks you can find a large number of tricks of all kinds. From making your jeans larger in a matter of minutes, to cleaning the glass so that there are no marks or to preserving food. 'Tips' that are very useful on a daily basis, but with which you have to be careful, because although they go viral promising to solve your problems, in the long run, they can cause some problems. An example of this was the method that became popular for hanging clothes and saving space on the clothesline. However, it was discovered that depending on the type of fabric, the clips can leave marks or slightly deform the seams, damaging the garments.
The same goes for the new viral trick that is circulating on platforms like TikTok in which I recommend putting a piece of aluminum foil under the ironing board. According to those who use it, this will make ironing faster and require less effort, and it will not be necessary to turn it over.
Although this type of paper can be very effective in some cases, in fact, it is recommended to put small balls of aluminum foil in the washing machine to extend the life of your clothes, in this case it can be counterproductive. The account @organizandoasesoria, which shares content related to household 'tips', has explained the reasons why you should not put this article, used mainly in the kitchen, on the table.
What problems can this viral trick cause?
As he explains, this trick, “in addition to not ironing faster, is not good for your clothes.” This young woman points out that when ironing clothes, “the steam must go through the clothes and come out on the other side.” Therefore, when covering the table it will not be able to do so and it will “condense”.
What this will cause is that the clothes “are wetter” when you finish ironing. In addition, it can also harm the ironing board itself, which, over time, can take on a “bad smell” or even “create mold.” And, as he points out, if we look closely, ironing boards are grates to allow the steam given off by this appliance to evaporate.
@organandoasesoria Today I want to talk to you about a trick that is very fashionable on social networks, but in reality, it cannot be as useful as it seems.❌ It involves placing a piece of aluminum foil under the ironing board cover to retain heat and prevent clothes from wrinkling. However, this can have the opposite effect than desired🙌🏼 The steam generated when ironing clothes must pass through the board to evaporate, but when placing the aluminum foil, the steam is trapped and condenses, leaving the clothes damp instead. dry and ready to use. So before trying this trick, it is important to consider its possible negative effects😌 Did you know this?

Therefore, to avoid spoiling your clothes, it is best to iron your clothes without adding this item. If you need to quickly remove those wrinkles that appear on pants, t-shirts or sweaters, you can use easy-iron 'sprays', which can be purchased in various supermarkets or even created at home with just three ingredients.
