Introducing a term

I'm trying to figure out how to introduce a term. Let's say I want to introduce an iron in this way.

I'd not like to talk about one of the best ways to get wrinkles out of clothes, a steam iron.

I'm using a comma there, but I'm not sure if it's correct.

Thanks.

Hi,

I'm trying to figure out how to introduce a term. Let's say I want to introduce an iron in this way.

I'd not now like to talk about one of the best ways to get wrinkles out of clothes, a steam iron.

I'm using a comma there, but I'm not sure if it's correct. A comma is OK, but many people would use a colon. ( In spoken English, you just pause, of course.
