  • If the heat of the iron was too hot, and has smoothed the shirt surface to create a shiny patch, your only solution is to buy a new shirt (or I suppose you could make the entire shirt shiny so it wouldn't show...) – Rory Alsop Feb 7 '19 at 18:14

I have found that if I wash a shirt again, the shininess goes away. Then, when I iron, I turn the shirt inside out. That is, I iron the side of the shirt that would be touching my skin if I was wearing it. Then, if there is any shininess, it will only be on that side of the shirt that nobody can see. The side that everybody sees looks normal.

  • @Nofel Sorry. I thought that washing it would remove the shine. – BrettFromLA♦ Feb 4 '19 at 21:32
