Am standing in the laundry trying to iron, its dificult when you are laughing.

Do you mean like putting Vaseline into your shaving cream? Then kind of ignoring the advice and doing it anyway, then wishing you had listened to the advice? :-)

There might have been a bit of that, but pics would have helped the experienced guys to assess the damage. Not that I am one of them.

Sorry, but as pixel said you didn't provide a lot to go on, but I am glad that you rescued it.

You might be able to sell the scales.
