Use your Rowenta steam iron to decode secret messages


"James Bond would be proud"


 

We all love our privacy. One of the most used phrases in the English language is "Mind your own business. We spend gobs of cash to ensure our privacy. Here's a fun way to keep that privacy in the midst of a house full of counter-spies. At least before a shower or cleaning.

1) Use your bathroom mirror, window or shiny metal object.

2) You can use the oils from your hand or enhance it with gel, grease or any other product that leaves a clear trail.

3) Write your message on the surface of any of the above items. Take care to remember where you left off so as not to write over your previous lines.

4) You can let it dry on its own or use a dryer to dry it until it disappears.

5) Fill your steam iron and set it on a temperature and steam setting that puts out adequate steam.

6) Press the steam button while circulating the iron over the object.

7) read message and clean before anyone else sees it.

You can use your breath to decode the message as well, but  someone may have just left the bathroom and left a fragrance that's not to spring fresh for inhaling deeply into your chest cavity. Not to mention the possibility of hyperventilation. And letting the shower steam reveal it runs the risks of someone else reading it and destroying it before you can get out and read it.
