    You can use a razor scraper to clean it or pour salt on a towel and use it to scrub it off or use a metal scrubbie or i hear lemon juice or vinager will work also.

    You might want to update this question as you are not being very specific.... WHAT KIND OF STAIN is actually ONyour clothes iron. Is it a dyed stain, a paint stain, a rust stain, a melted plastic stain, a glue stain. People here are willing to help. Be more specific with your question!
