I always have used a couple of sheets of waxed paper. Use the cotton setting and move the iron around on them. It always worked, but your problem sounds pretty bad. Do you have any idea what's on it? If so, that would be a help in answers.

I use a plastic dish scrubber and dish detergent. I haven't ever tried the Mr. Clean because idk if it will scratch or not. https://4.imimg.com/data4/UG/EM/MY-19306774/plastic-scrubber-500x500.jpg
