This soft press soleplate is made especially for LauraSTAR (for models S-4e, i-S5, S-4, S-3, i-G5 and G-4) – the holes align perfectly to the steam holes on the LauraSTAR soleplate. By attaching this accessory you lower the temperature of the soleplate to allow for pressing of delicates and items needed to be pressed on a cooler setting. Attach this to the soleplate of the iron so clothes won't have a shine when pressed. The non-stick surface is a plus when ironing fusible onto fabric. Screen-printed shirts are safe from the heat of the iron since the plate is non-stick. It protects the iron’s soleplate from ink and fusible transfer.
