Yeppers!
Sunlight, and it didn't take long, to warp the mat, ask me how I know? So quilters who love to have their sewing room with windows near where the cutting mat is beware of direct sunlight streaming in on your cutting table/mat! :0)
But all was not lost, kind of, :0) The warped mat was re-purposed by cutting it into smaller mats. Lesson learned.
Thank-you for directions on how to clean with proper water temperature!
